I embrace my being
With all its blemishes.
Smoothing out the wrinkles
is the texture of life’s journey.
The discovery of who I am.
Beyond my mind.
My relationships
My gender, my pigmentation.
My culture, religion, language or nationality.
Life is full of disappointments.
Broken promises.
Woundedness.
Lives half full
Seeking happiness in the other.
Aah for the freedom of my uniqueness.
The lessons I have come to learn.
The topsy turvey of all sensations.
All emotions.
I tread softly.
The arc of life is a thread over lifetimes.
I am a speck
Infinitismally insignificant
But an essential cog of this cosmos.
Seek not yourself in the other.
You carry the seed of an evolved creation.
Entwine your shadow.
Because the conscient is born of the inconscient.
As Light will not exist without the Darkness.
Our path is solitary.
The path of the heart is the code of Life. When the heart loves itself.
It’s sees it’s Higher Self.
It’s our Navigator through
the thread to all of existence.
Only then the heart can love another.
Can seek joy in the other.
The joyous enrapture
Without the dependency.
Mother Nature is our mirror
A radical collaboration
Gentle. Violent. Symbiotic. Complementary. Competitive.
An exquisite artistry of magic
That yields an abundance of
Reciprocity.
Compassion.
Symbiosis.
I am Ubuntu
It is my Truth.
I am because I am part of everything that exists.
My joy is the joy of all.
