If I am still, and present in this very moment, there is nothing to seek.  I am completely filled up.  This requires only that I am aware of this truth.  Every moment.  The awareness itself is the proof of it.

However, being in the here and now is a constantly flitting butterfly for us humans.  the more I grasp and flail for it, the more it flits and flies erratically out of reach.  It is sitting still and opening my eyes and heart to this very very very here and now that I feel the deep groundedness in this time and space.

I bow to the mind that brings memories, doubts, future tripping and then drops a photo of my high school friends in my lap from my meditation book.  Human life is a giggle with the way time and space folds in on it self in every other moment.

I’m not sure if I want to wake up, or dive into the dream life today of the ups and downs as the Path.  However, this moment is when I sit very very still and let the love of my Dear Friend alight on my nose.  Her colors are exquisite.  The song of Her love defies the base element of sound. My whole body leans into the conscious contact with the One.

Hurray for here and now.
