Am I ready to Hear?

The truth is so simple

We make it so complicated

The light that’s in the dark

I don’t consider myself a pessimist. I think of a pessimist as someone who is waiting for it to rain. And I feel soaked to the skin.

Beyond the tenth pole

To forget is to remember

But don’t take that literally

Thoughts

They all come to visit

 from the land beyond time.

 They are all welcome here.

How can I help?

To stay out of the way

while fully expressing myself.

That’s the gift.

The birth of this world

It’s impossible to hide

from my beautiful mind.

All the delusions, all the delight

In plain sight.

It’s impossible to hide

from my beautiful mind.

The end of the wait

Let me be ruined by love,

So that I may come back to you

without pride, or stupidity,

-Or pretense, or opinions-

or any sense of separation…

Seven pieces from the same rope

1. The first piece is gone, beyond gone.

2. I get in touch with my vast, deep sorrow
to find out there is no sorrow.

3. “To know the difference between what hurts and what doesn’t”
people call that by fancy names.

4. With it being all a lie, focus on what works, discard what doesn’t.

5. Free to be bound and free to be free
what a wonderful thing!

6. As I die in the love for my teacher
I live.

7. Everything shows me how to be of service.

It’s that simple

All I have to offer

is my vulnerability

To think about

Am I happy for my own sake

or to show off?
