Personal Poverty

“Not good enough, therefore I hoard like a junkie.”  I don’t think I’m quite that bad any more (but could be in denial).  However the vision that I grip tightly to relationships that are mutually outgrown is clear.  The melancholy to leave what I love for a true calling is evident.

The Tao says to keep to the void, thus I can use all things, all feelings, all travel, all change, all places, all people–every whining ache my body.

I am simultaneously grateful for this brilliant moment, and wonder what I am not doing to prepare for the unseen future.  What a giggle this human/spirit life is!

Bowing to the Lotus within, I gaze into Your most magnificent eyes with thankful tears.
