Where do
You fit
In to life?
You are Life,
Dear One.
All things
Must fit
Into you.
You are
The In.
self-discovery
I was about to walk
Towards the Moon,
And she said,
“Stop right there.
Find the path
To your own light.
Then come.
Love you.”
The you
That you will be next
Is likely waiting
In the space between
Stillness and not-thinking.
Go quick!
Beneath the
Impulse to act
Is your
Path to being
And your
Greatest discovery.
Look deep within
Beyond the loud images
Of the mind.
See the Self
For what it is –
Emptiness full of Life.
I created distance
Between us
Thinking it was best
Not seeing that
I suppressed the me
Your presence
Was inviting me to see.
Come closer, please.
I may still
Want to run away
But I will stay,
Loving you
And inviting in more of me.
This morning,
I left my house
Intent on becoming somebody
On showing the World
Just how important I am.
And you wouldn’t believe
Who I met along the way.
The World,
Looking lost,
Searching for its own importance.
Now, I’m on my way back home,
A nobody with a new friend.
Immortal, expansive Self
Where can you hide,
Except behind the veil
Of a stilled mind?
I looked for me in the things I do
And found only ideas, expectations, and fears.
Then I looked for me beyond me
And found light, an infinite ocean, and an all-encompassing cosmic wave of Love.
For awhile, I stopped looking.
I lost the sense of me.
It was ever evolving, ever unfolding.
Now, I have a glimpse of Reality
Beneath the unfolding
That whispers, “I am what I am not
And what I am not is what I’ve always been.”
Be you
Yes, find yourself
Resting inside your own heart
Path to Being
