I know.
I am nothing
We are all so truly insignificant
in the grand scheme of eternity
in the realm of infinity
we are not even a speck upon a speck upon an microscopic speck
The ripple caused by the tiniest pebble of a soul we have
is virtually unoticable in the vastness
of all that is
and yet
I AM
you are
here we are
We each have a need
to be validated in this role we play
to be accepted
to be loved
and so we roar
we moan
we beseech
we proclaim
and yet
we continue to be insignificant
I can't tell you what to do
how to grasp and deal with such a perplexing dilemma
I can only tell you that when you connect to the vast infinite eternity that is love
God's love
as let it spill over you
let it fill you're every crevice and deep dark passages
let it engulf your every sense
guide your every word
inspire your every action
quiet your every raging thought
you realize that you are part of something beyond measure
beyond all quantification
*****
The easiest way I've found to tap into that source
is through complete forgiveness, unending acceptance/compassion and unconditional love
first towards oneself
and once mastered
it will automatically shine on everything else*
It's not a necessarily easy endeavor....
but it is the only true shot at deep, permanent peace and happiness
that we have
and I can be thankful and live in gratitude for that
knowing that inside me
is all I need to make this life a true heaven on earth
and I am thankful for that
every day is one more day to chose love
to touch the divine
to give my life to the only true calling
to the glory that is living
when we simply follow our hearts
