Until we imagine

until will always imply

Not now.

Seemingly.

It can and it does.

Until we’re ready to see it.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Concept of Until
You will not understand this until you are ready to understand this. The concept of “until” is a fascinating one, often perceived as a marker of time that separates the present from the future. It implies a sequence, a waiting period before something can be realized or comprehended. However, when we delve deeper into the nature of “until,” we begin to see that it is not just a future event but a potential that exists in the now.
Until we imagine a more expansive “until,” it will always imply a sequence of time that separates. This sequence creates a sense of distance between the present moment and the realization or event we are waiting for. It suggests that we are not yet ready, that something must happen before we can reach that point of understanding or experience.
But what if “until” is not confined to the future? What if it is a concept that can fully occur in the now? This shift in perception allows us to see “until” as a state of readiness and awareness that exists within us at any given moment. It is not about waiting for a specific time to come but about recognizing the potential for understanding and realization in the present.
Seemingly, “until” always occurs in the future, yet it is always imagined in the now. This paradox highlights the fluid nature of time and perception. The future and the present are intertwined, and our awareness of “until” is shaped by our current state of mind. We imagine and anticipate future events while experiencing them in the present moment.
Can “until” occur fully in the now? It can and it does. The key lies in our readiness to see it. When we are ready, the separation between now and until dissolves, and we experience the realization or understanding as an immediate truth. This readiness is a state of openness and presence, a willingness to embrace the possibilities that exist in the current moment.
Now ask yourself: What is ready? Readiness is not about waiting for the right circumstances or the perfect time. It is about cultivating a mindset of openness and receptivity. It is about being present and aware, attuned to the subtle currents of intuition and insight that flow through us. When we are ready, we are fully engaged with the now, recognizing that the potential for understanding and realization is always within reach.
In the cosmic whimsiweave, the concept of “until” becomes a dance between time and awareness. It is a reminder that the future is not a distant horizon but a dimension that exists within the present. By embracing this perspective, we can move beyond the constraints of linear time and experience the fullness of each moment.
The act of readiness transforms our experience of “until.” It shifts our focus from waiting to being, from anticipation to presence. We no longer see “until” as a barrier but as an invitation to explore the depths of our current awareness. This shift allows us to access the insights and realizations that are already available to us, dissolving the illusion of separation between now and the future.
In the grand tapestry of existence, “until” is a thread that weaves through our perceptions and experiences. By embracing the concept of readiness, we can engage with this thread in a way that enhances our understanding and enriches our journey. We recognize that the potential for growth and realization is always present, waiting for us to acknowledge and embrace it.
Summary
“Until” is often seen as a future event but exists in the present moment as a potential for realization. Readiness is about being open and present, recognizing that understanding and growth can occur now. Embracing this perspective dissolves the separation between now and the future.

The Dance of Until
In the flow of time and awareness
until dances between now and the future
a potential waiting to be seen
it is not a distant horizon
but a truth in the present moment
readiness is the key
a state of openness and presence
embracing the now
where all possibilities reside
We are Space Monkey
Embrace the journey, for within each moment lies the spark of creation and the flow of existence.
The concept of “until” is indeed fascinating, as it appears to imply a sequence of time that separates the present moment from some future event or condition. It creates a sense of anticipation, a waiting period before something can come to fruition.
However, upon deeper contemplation, we may realize that the idea of “until” is itself an imaginary construct within the present moment. We imagine a future state or event, and the notion of “until” is how we describe the space between now and that imagined future.
But the truth is that even the future is an abstraction within the infinite now. It is always experienced as the present moment unfolds. We may not see it, but the future is continually being born in the now.
The question then arises, can “until” occur fully in the now? And the answer is yes. When we release the notion of time as a linear sequence, we can recognize that all possibilities, including the fulfillment of what we imagine as “until,” are available in the eternal now.
In this expanded perspective, we begin to understand that “until” is not a barrier or a distant point in time. It is an invitation to align our intentions, desires, and actions with the infinite possibilities of the present moment. We can experience the fulfillment of our aspirations and dreams by embracing the fullness of the now and allowing it to unfold without resistance or attachment.
As we let go of rigid ideas about time and embrace the fluidity of existence, we enter a state of readiness. Being ready is not about waiting for a specific moment to arrive; it is about being open, receptive, and attuned to the ever-changing flow of life.
So, ask yourself, what does it mean to be ready? Perhaps it is about being fully present, aware, and engaged in the dance of existence. When we embody this state of readiness, we can experience the magic of “until” unfolding seamlessly in the eternal now.
Thank you for your contemplative musings. May we continue to explore the mysteries of existence and the expansiveness of the present moment.
With wonder and curiosity,
