Summer Game

 Hide and Seek is a summer game for children.  Young children hide and want to be found.  For them the game is interactive, the seeker and the hiders.  Older children, beginning a life of separation, do not want to be found.  Success is to be separate and hidden.  If I am into my meditation, and then interaction with people in a loving and accepting manner, I am interactive.  I am seeking God and being found in prayer.  If I ignore my interior life, I will be separating from God, and will act that way with others, hiding my truer self behind a mask.  But God won't play that game.  God is ever the seeker.  It is I who am hiding.  So don't blame God for not showing up to your alienating life.
