The right path for you is black and white,

And you know it.

You’ve seen glimpses of it.

You dream of it,

Yet with the rising of each passing sun

You tell yourself you don’t deserve it.

At the heart of the matter is self-doubt and fear.

And so you think that there’s this other place,

Somewhere off into the future,

But you realize that right now is all there’s ever been and all there ever will be.

So you accept this. The divide within yourself. You dare in this moment to open yourself up; to peel back the layers and to love and accept everything within you. Now. Now you’re on the path you desire. And you’ve realized… it’s not that you’re not somewhere doing things you don’t live doing. You’re doing exactly what you’ve wanted to do.

_______

Life’s unbelievable. Truly. So unbelievable that we’re actually hiding from ourselves….because we’re all so bright and beautiful that it’s blinding, to say the least.

You should carry a-slight-smile,

And stand with shoulders back.

These two tools will help you

To-not-give-focus to what you lack.

A bucket

To sit on

When I want to sit

Is all I need.

___

It’s what was there.

More than I asked for.

I relaxed

So now you read.

___

And will have read

What I wrote…

—

My wish for us is presence.

Your gain. My little note.
