When I look at the stars
I experience limitless being,
I see the wonder of creation...
the depth and scope of what can be
what will be and what already is.
It is truly limitless...
experiencing oneness
in a giant mechanism of infinity-
feeling like I belong,
feeling like nothing can go wrong,
feeling awe struck in all existence,
feeling alive.
Then there are times
when I run in my ruts
of my day to day living,
Sitting in my car-
waiting for a color
to tell me to stop
to tell me to go...
repetitive, like a sedative....
I experience limited being,
I see only my barriers
and monotonous movements
of semi consciousness-
without depth and scope.
I am truly limited in being.
Need to shake the cobwebs from my head
look at the stars instead
and start being limitless...
We all experience it-
life that is,
no getting around it
as long as you breathe.
But we all seem to gleen from it
a different accounting-
while running the course of our lives.
Some have gained much ground,
yes they’ve grown and shine.
While others seem to only lose ground
and that little which they had planted is now dyin’.
It can be summed up in a simple phrase
“Life has two choices,
that you practice while fulfilling your days,
you can either gain experience
or gain bitterness....
It is a simple matter of overcomming
or being overcome.
It’s a choice of standing
and facing the wind
or being undone.
It’s a matter of accepting one’s fate
or looking to blame someone...
Which ever route you choose to go
life isn’t going to slow down for anyone,
you can either get run over by it,
or learn to go with the flow!
