Freedom

“Actions do not cling to me, because I am not attached to their results.”  Thus, says Krishna, “I am free.”

I shake off the results, the finished product, my boss’s reaction, my brother’s harsh remarks.  I am teflon and all comments slide off me like my ass on ice.  I throw up my hands and surrender to the law of release.  I unclasp my tight fingers and let the butterfly free.

“Perform all work carefully,” the sweet image of God said, “guided by compassion.”  Carefully I move through the day, knowing that I am an actor of love, moving love, creating love, watching love, hearing love.

Sitting like a sluggish love early in the morning, I warm myself in Your Presence, my dear brilliant blue charioteer.
