Losing.

2comments



On losing. Not winning. This is what I'm talking about. Those things that happen and you think? Why did that happen? No good. And things happen well elsewhere that seem good (for others) and you can feel that jealousy (or resentment) but that's where you lose that wisdom? I can't deal with this like that. Something more like I'm so glad that happened to you, I'm so grateful that happened to you. What's ever happening here will change, sometimes the road just swerves. Always swerves. SO, you can not tell your good from your bad and your bad from your good, because every bad has good, and everything good will change. So I feel liberated. To hold that future and that past and that now and know they all slip like water through your fingers!

I'm not losing anything.

Window Sill

2comments

Two hands on the window sill, leaning over the ledge looking out over the street. Rocking back and forth. How many window ledges have I to look out over? It doesn't matter. Each is different. This one's black. Now. From such moments of infinity and life to those of darkness and death. And I feel them all. I feel each second. Trying to run for cover when those catches of drowning set it. But that's not the point. Running is never the point. Having that break, shift of consciousness is the point. Becoming mentally better and stronger and less reliant on everything that is fleeting, including emotions. That's where the internal stability comes in, that inner peace. That inner breath of Godwhole.

Empty Space

0comments


Before you judge others or claim any absolute truth, consider that you can see less that 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum and hear less than 1% of the acoustic spectrum. As you read this, you are traveling at 220 kilometers per second across the galaxy. 90% of the cells in your body carry their own microbial DNA and are not “you”. The atoms in your body are 99.9999999999999999% empty space and none of them are the ones you were born with, but they all originated in the belly of a star. Human beings have 46 chromosomes, 2 less than the common potato. The existence of the rainbow depends on the conical photoreceptors in your eyes; to animals without cones, the rainbow does not exist. So you don’t just look at a rainbow, you create it. This is pretty amazing, especially considering that all the beautiful colours you see represent less than 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum.
