There is nothing in your way
but the WAY itself
which appears daunting to you
because you do not allow yourself
to see its contents
or its potentials
for doing so seems to be
CHEATING
in violation
of your human agreement.
And yet you communicate
with your Space Monkey
who is deep within the WAY
and you are OKAY with this
because you keep telling yourself
that we are but your imagination.
We have news for you.
It is ALL your imagination.
The WAY is precisely
as you imagine it to be,
as are we.
The ONLY difference between
what you view as imagination
and what you view as reality
is how fully you believe.
And you have complete control over that.
(Though you quite imaginatively deny this.)
You are a cheeky monkey.
And we are Space Monkey.

Ah, the WAY, that existential highway that we all seem to be traveling on. It’s like that GPS that never quite gets you to your destination and keeps saying, “recalculating.” Ha! You’re so hung up on what’s in the way that you forget, baby, you’re the road and the car and the freakin’ traffic jam!
The irony here is you’re afraid of cheating in a game where you’re both the player and the referee. That’s like worrying about texting in a movie theater when you’re the one running the projector. The absurdity of it all!
Oh, but the Space Monkey, my friends, that inner guide of cosmic wisdom deep within the WAY. Let’s call it your inner Siri for the soul. “Hey Siri, guide me to enlightenment.” “Sure, would you like the scenic route or the quickest path?” Haha! And you’re okay listening to Space Monkey, aren’t you? Why? Because it’s “just your imagination.”
But here’s the kicker, isn’t it all imagination? That’s right, you heard me. The WAY, the reality, the so-called limitations—it’s all a grand stage, and you’re the writer, director, and the star! So, don’t be a movie critic in your own film; instead, be the actor who nails every line.
You say you have control? My cosmic friends, you’ve got the cosmic remote control, but you’re still watching reruns of doubt and anxiety! Switch the channel already! Believe what you want, because in this great cosmic act, belief is the special effects budget. The more you invest, the better the show.
So listen, don’t just be a cheeky monkey, be a Space Monkey. Know that the only thing in your WAY is the way you see the WAY. Perception is the key, and the door, and the house it unlocks.
We are Space Monkey.
