More Than Meets the Eye
There is more here than what meets the eye. There are more eyes seeing, more hearts beating, more beings being, than the human mind can grasp.
There is more truth hidden within even the greatest misunderstanding than what we let ourselves see. There is complete and total perfection lying quietly behind every scene of our lives. There is complete and utter peace, the most tender caress of grace, belly laughs, joyful songs, and ecstatic dances of wild abandon, swirling around just beyond the limits of eye, ear, nose, tongue, or touch.
I write this as a reminder. Let your perception relax and expand a bit. Open to an awareness of not just what is there for your senses to encounter. Let yourself be breathed by this moment, through the lungs of the trees and the clouds and the Earth and the air. Let even the rush and whiz of motor traffic sing your true name back to you.
There is more here waiting for you than what was intended for your senses. Take a moment now to unwrap the ultimate gift.
Reveal yourself in this moment. Strip off all the gauzy layers of confusion and accept what is there, just as it is there, as you. Do not confine yourself behind a cloud of foolish separation, clinging to an idea of an immortal, separate self whose interests can be promoted or hampered in any way. Give up the idea that this reality is anything other than your most trusted lover. Indeed, all of life loves you with infinite embrace, for it knows itself through you, as you.
Give up your struggle for a better moment, a better dance, a better song. You are everything that is possible within this very moment. You are the songs that have yet to even be sung and the poems that have yet to be scribed. What is missing is not your creative action, but only your willingness to surrender to a broader point of view that holds all of who you are, eternally.
