Inside the box Or outside of it Bigger outside Limited inside But protected Defined and set. A master explorer Or framed settler? Balance is needed Community agrees With each other On many things And leaves room To disagree some. Thus we get along May stay together Or otherwise part While the whole Includes in and out Cycles back and forth Exploring and settling. Both are appropriate At the right time And the best place To root in for good Or pull up to go on Breathing in and out As the body's settled Until sooner or later Soul will just move on In love with all life.
Little balloon
Sooner or later, little balloon may pop
Or else, just lose air and shrivel away.
Thus, it will end its inflated life cycle.
Deflated, it has not much existence
Unless new or intact, ready to grow.
So, will it be filled with plain air
To be the weight of surroundings
Just slightly heavier by its own,
Or is there a lighter filler at hand
So it can rise and float up high?
Quite unusual is a heavier filler
Unless maybe water to play toss
As a little harmless splash bomb
Offering a rather short life span
To a little balloon used this way.
Thus it is with such balloons.
Most are destined to soar
Preferably up, by lift or toss
Eventually coming back down
Having served their purpose.
What did they find up there
Besides a message of joy
The breath of life and love
Spiritual freedom and truth
Divine spirit, soul, and God?
After all, what’s left deflated
Is just a heap of misery, if torn;
However, if intact, to be reused.
Breath in and float up ever again
For another day in life and love!
It’s a miracle
It’s a miracle how it all adds up. After all, it appears that all the pieces fit together, beyond what we could ever plan or humanly envision. To discover this, however, one needs to let go of everything. That does not mean to get rid of things, not all of them at least. Practicing detachment allows the flow its freedom to be and flow as it does. And, at the same time, making a concentrated effort to go with it, to tune in, puts energy and focus into realizing the flow, the audible life current — with the fundamental attitude: “Thy will be done!”
Then dreams can come true, beyond ego or selfishness, for the good of the whole. Nature has its way — life and love. The back and forth of individuals, coming together and parting again, their exchange and communication perpetuates itself in the flow of nature, of karma, and ultimately in spiritual freedom.
Please, don’t try to tell me who we are. Let’s find out together in being and doing, living and loving, exploring the moment now!
