I’m learning to stay open
Like a cloudless sky
Learning to allow and accept each moment,
One at at time.

Just as the sky allows sun, clouds, and rain,
I’m learning to welcome all of my emotions:
Joy, frustration, and pain.
Letting them come and letting them go
No resistance, no attachment,
Just letting them flow.

I’m learning that in life
There are no problems, only situations.
But it is the human mind
That likes to create problem after problem
Rather than living in constant jubilation.

I’m learning that when I point a finger at someone,
Three point back at me,
No good can come from blame,
Only suffering.
All suffering is caused when we have desire,
So I’m learning to sit in the Seat of Self,
And watch what I want
Burn away like fire.

From this Seat of Self
I can finally see,
The true me, and you, is pure Consciousness
It’s Oneness,
It’s Free

We are all but One energy,
Never created, nor destroyed
Let go of blame, anger, impatience,
And move forever, into eternal joy.
