this afternoon
scents waft in on the breeze sky is carolina blue with whiter than white clouds showing streaky puffy and wild animations! last night bursts of sharp startling light sliced into the room like butchers wielding long shiny knives and then making themselves dark again all the while mixing it up with roaring growling threatening giants from middle earth tearing through the dirt rumbling hard and then bounding into the ethos just for good measure and then shhhh quiet as little church mice staying still for awhile. again and again tearing through the room, they played their wild game. a dangling arm attached to a gentle hand caressing the soft fur of a four-legged come to that side of the bed gentle and forlorn seeking soft comfort and easy love.

The invitation is to leave it alone. To let life be. To know yourself as being lived. That is what is happening here. Life is alive as you, through your breath, through your being. Don't look for it elsewhere. It does you and undoes you, over and over again. You are not the doer. Stop claiming that you are, and your relentless despair of knowing you are not, will dissolve. The belief in the doer, is what deadens you, and crushes your heart. And yet you fear death. The only death you will ever know is this lifeless longing. Question these beliefs, awaken from them, and live it out loud. Then you will know yourself as boundless life, as freedom, and your body will age and die fully alive, without regret, endlessly beautiful.
