God......bring me

God bring me joy

The genuine kind

That lights you up like a firecracker

From the inside out

God give me ease

Not in The outside factors

But in the inside ones

Make my spirit and heart light

With the tranquility of your love


************

May I have the compassion and benevolence

The overwhelmingly palpable feeling of love

 that seems to me to be the root

Of you.......God

May I first learn to direct it to myself in complete acceptance

And then learn to point it to everything

And everyone else.

Human malaise

There is no way to live

In this human carcass

With these emotions

And desires

These needs and habits

These hormones and imbalances

And not feel the depths of the experience itself

And not be taken over by it all

I

I say

I feel

I am

I seems to be the grand adventure

Not good

Not bad

Not right

Not wrong

It is the crescendo of all that came before

Interspliced with the cacophony of all that will come next

Meeting in the quiet of the eye of the storm

Called the now

The ever present

How could my heart not soften and bleed

At the wonder of it all

We are all held in that infinite state of pause

Between our past and our future

The pains and joys we have experienced and caused

And those yet to come

Culminating all into this moment of endless nows

Where it all can change

With the most minute shift

-------------

When we go from the singular and narrow framed "I"

Experience

To the all encompassing "All" experience

That some know as God, Spirit, Dharma, Oneness, what have you

When that not so small shift happens

The world will change

It will indeed chang

One person at a time
