Presence


Gaze into the heavens, observe the breeze stream through palm fronds like a belly dancer’s hand seductively passing over an adoring man’s shoulder. . Ingest the air as if it were your last, allow your chest to build with awareness. . Take in the aromas whirling around, vying for attention like playing school children encircling their teacher. . Hear the song of creation, attend to the tune... celebrate the pitch, the chord, the mere note... join in the chorus. . Extend your hands above, stretching out your fingers like sails beckoning the winds - welcome vibration, let it unite with your being. . The thump of your heart, the pitch of your inhalation, reside there... and there alone. . Merge with change, accepting it fully. Adapt. Withdraw thought, judgement, desire. . See, perceive, observe, understand, realize the beauty of nature surrounding you... reminding you of life’s temporal nature. . An instant shift in the winds, a teasing drizzle, a refreshing chill, a warming embrace, tickling snowfall - all momentarily perfection. Dusk progresses into twilight, dawn into radiance. A tide, a shore - two children uniting, breathing life into innocence through unity before merging back with their source. Cloud-cover morphs, builds, resigns, retreats. Rivers - ever anew, never fleeing a past nor pursuing a future, wholly present-eternally flowing... until they too are no more. Seasons beam with invigoration... peaking, fulfilling, tiring... sinking into hibernation as the next yawns into awareness. Moonlight shifts, hides, stretches, swaggers, blooms, retreats... always refreshed, embodying transformation. . We are not the culmination of our experience, but the perception of it. Perceive a truth - you are always changing, as is your reality. And by accepting this, you will cease to be discontented with change. Nature is constantly there to remind you of this truth, bestowing an end to suffering with your acceptance of it.
