As I wonder through my travels today
In life's splendid incarnations of different depths and different colors
all existing in the play of life
I find the words "Remember thy self"
to be the one that explodes into my consciousness
... and yet how can I share with what I am if I don't know what it is
So as to inspire to thy self in who is me
What is it to know thy self?
and so I pause
Take in a few breaths...
I am taken to the center of all storms
To the center of all personalities and forms
All catastrophes
and I am calm
My body is relaxed in a state of ease
that I can feel the inner muscles of my fingers
I can feel the rhythm of my breath
inhales dancing into the exhales
There is space, silence, quiet
and a feeling of utter gratitude
as I sit in this place
The world is moving,
and even when I am moving
there is a beam of light within me
centered, relaxed calm, quiet, observing
All that is.
And the most encouraging of lessons for me is
I can allow this
I can chose this
I can dissolve all else to this
and in my life today, as all that comes into the fray
I move to remember this
I chant over and over again
"Remember thy self."
