* The Light *

A drop of water in the ocean
is still the ocean.
A grain of sand on a beach
is still the beach.
Your life is Life..
Your time is Time..

You are pervasive..

You can flow through life and time
as you please.
Just open your mind
and feel the connection.

Embrace it.
You are part of it,
You are it,
You are.

One with the beach,
the ocean,
the bird,
dog,
monk,
mother..

Their joy is your joy,
their sorrow is yours too.
Share the burden,
Share the beatitude.

Be vividly connected to everything..

The wind across your arms,
the ground under your feet,
the warmth and light upon your face.

It's not external..
It's a part of you..
and you are a part of it.

When you hurt someone,
you are hurting yourself.
When you help someone,
you are helping yourself.

Choose sympathy over ignorance,
empathy over apathy,
compassion over inconvenience..

We have created social networks that keep us from
socializing..
What if we instead plugged into a consciousness network
that makes us aware..awake..alive..

We are in one sea,
of it a drop,
but part of a whole..

Could we
work towards
the creation of an optimal environment
where the ocean of consciousness
and all beings in it
would flourish..

Just a thought...
