roadtrip of the soul

A conversation from within

As I lay in bed the other night this conversation was continually running through me.... it seemed as if it lasted for hours and eventually I had to write it down.....frustratingly though..as with many paintings I see within... the words did not flow in true honoring of the living moment

I sat in the room with only morning's promise for light and these words that follow are the best that I could come to expressing.... the conversation within.........

"No matter the span of our Life here there is going to come a time when we have to make a journey... no one else can take it for us.

It seems also that however we have decided to except or disregard faith in our Lives we are going to face ourselves when that moment comes.

Imagine standing..or sitting before a great presence of Love and then feeling that within yourself and realizing it is the very essence of Life. An essence all too easily suffocated in this world.

Then .. laid out before you is your Life.. every moment. As you gaze upon them you can feel their impact on the world about you..on other's hearts..on the land..maybe an animal that was as a pet or a bird with an injured wing... you get to feel the joy of that tree's spirit as you climbed it and rested within it's shade  during a summer's day.

Maybe the excitement in each wag of your dog's tail as they greeted you... allowing to feel the unconditional Love they were offering you.

Then you feel the pain..the shame as you see the moment when you hit them. All they were being was themselves.

Maybe you stood up and protected Life from harm..... as a humble warrior.

Imagine all those petty things..the jealous acts that hurt another.The times of ego that led you to believe your Life as more important then an other's. The cold shoulders to an other's need for help. The times of judgment on others... telling them they are less than. Violent words spat from your tongue or lies to ruin another while honoring yourself.

Maybe it seemed as if wearing different masks for different people.... but beneath it is always you.

Remembering tears you shed for strangers because your heart felt their suffering as they passed on the street.

It's not about perfection and we all have tests,struggles,failings and victories...... but we are also responsible for how we choose to react or act. To do so knowing it to be cruel,self-honoring,deceitful,abusive,corrupting of Love..... oppressive....

........There will come that time..we cannot escape yourselves ..our soul carries every moment.

So maybe now,in this Life we should ask ourselves if we can face all that we have done and are..

This Life is not about You,I,Us,Him,Her or Them.. it is about All..it is about Everything with spirit."

Much love and Prayers Everyone.
