To Become

To seek peace, is to not have it, yet to make peace with the world is to carry peace into the world...

To seek happiness outside of self, it to not have it, yet to choose happiness is to carry happiness into the world.

to seek love, is to not know it, yet to fall in love with everything we feel, sense and preceive, is to allow the world to fall in love with you.

To seek healing outside of self, is to see the reflection of our inner quest, yet we shall not have it untill we know that we are healing with everything that we do, and therefore carry healing into the world through us.

that is the duality we live, for no broken heart would exist, if it was never full to the brim with love and trust.

to see the treasures in our darkside, is to know our light, for they both are our teachers, and to deny one side is to deny life.

to be afraid of looking like the fool, is to be afraid to live...

without fearing something, and doing it anyway, courage would not exist...

how do we see our strength, if we do not know our weakness?

how can we understand freedom, unless we have felt like there were no alternitives, no other options, no choices, and seen the falseness in those feelings?

these are the choices we have come to taste both ends of, so that we may move in a way that benifits all that is, for we do not have to die to go to hell, many have lived through their personal hells, and we do not need to die to go to heaven, for we can choose to live it where we stand, yet how will we "know" what they are, unless we experience them both?

sure am glad we are rich in experience, for that may assist us all, in saving ourselves....

      Is that what undistorted love does? hahahaha

      and trust me, I Am Human as well as Divine, so I still have some wrinkles in my love...

      A Work in Progress I am, as I was in the beginning, and shall be at the end, then the transformation begins again....
