For we commonly are fixed upon what we believe has yet to be
Constantly reshaping, thinking what will come to thee
Riches, rags, children, cars, houses, jobs and fancy fare
We strategize, hypothesize how we can make it there.
Take this job, love this person, buy this but avoid the other
Talk to her, dress like this, remember these bases to cover.
We even encourage our children to plot and plan the same
Asking them to form their future before they can write their name
But if only we could focus on the places we have been
We may find joy and satisfaction already lies within
If we remember, we may not again place eager hands on a hot burner,
We may recall being a perpetrator and judge each other no further
If we could recall what led us to this very situation,
Perhaps we could surpass this restriction and frustration
But we are all too fixed upon the places we will go
Not taking time to figure out just what happened hitherto.
Nor understanding the vast complexities of our space and time
Without it we are prone to see our lives as one straight line...
A beginning...a middle…and an end--to which we cling
But we shall realize where we are now is where we've always been
And where we go next is where we already are
And what appears as a body is in reality a bright star
That exists everywhere, nowhere and anywhere in between
My dears, there isn't anywhere your soul has not been
Just ask it, you will see, you are wise beyond your years
There is no need to view "future" happenings with uncertainty and fear
For they have already happened and happening right now
You are part of an infinite play! All applaud and take a bow!
Let’s expand our awareness—allow ourselves to feel
Like an orange, each assumption--grab ahold and peel
Away from our core to find our true center
It's there—beautiful and unbroken—despite our conjecture
The places you will go are the places you have been
Are the places where you are so why not go within?
And explore your multidimensional reality--
Your omnipresence, your opulence--to let your spirit free!
Release yourself from judgment, fear, righteousness and condemnation
Enjoy your role as creators in this wonderful creation :)
Peace and love to you all,
