There are times when I approach life selfishly.
When the majority of my words are formulated around 'I'...a traditionally narcissistic, egotistically skewed perspective. It is as if, the whole world should stop and cater to my needs. All hearts should beat at the same rhythm as my own.
I know not where it surfaces from, or why...but indeed it occurs.
For that, I am guilty.

 

But then there are times when the 'I' dissipates. It absolves itself unto me. My thoughts focus on this world, on life, on all other beings.
I feel selfless...filled with passion to harmonize all that is lost in the fires of hate, greed, and violence.


There are times when I feel at one with all those around me...blind to race, gender, status.

I feel merely spiritual energy.

I look at you, and I see me...our core make-up identical, despite the distractingly attractive armor.


While my life is merely a breath in the boundless, limitless expanse of eternity...
While it will pass proportionate to a blink, in the eyes of eternity...
While my story will soon be lost in the black hole of this universe...
in this moment...in this breath....my life matters...
And so does yours, whoever and wherever you may be.

 

In this brief, microcosmic piece of Time, I am glad our paths have crossed.

 

All the best xxx

Rex,When my poker world seems like a nebula that has exploded and I'm just floating aimlessly thru cyber space, your writing helps me realize that within the darkness there is the possibility of finding hidden galaxies and reaching for the stars again. Thank You
