Now, I cannot sing along with Mitch, but I do have something to say to this one (Sue) and that one (Joel) and, to some extent, to all of you and it is this. There is no need to justify your existence. You do not need to write or preach to justify your existence. Being is its own justification. You do not have to knock your gut out, in other words, either of you and this also applies to our friend, Ruburt. Consciousness is its own justification, and this goes for each of you. Only when you realize this, can you begin to utilize your freedom. Otherwise you try too hard.

You have been much given to thoughts of death this evening. Now, I have been a very lively corpse many times, but then, so have you all. And the inner portions of yourselves know this well. You have walked away from more graves than you can remember and will, indeed, many of you, walk away from more. Why then do you worry about justifying your own existence in this hour?

(To Joel) The word “unfold,” that you spoke earlier, is far nearer to any understanding of the truth. The unfolding has already occurred. You have only to accept it. If you become too determined to justify your existence then you will begin to close out areas of your life.

(To Sue) Only those areas that mean— only those areas that mean to you safe justification have meaning and the others will begin to disappear. If you write, therefore, to justify your existence then in time other aspects of reality will lose their meaning for you. You do not have to justify in any terms.
