Just another WordPress site
finding our place
in time and space
might less be
a question of making
than a question of receiving
what is already
and pass it on
being run down by fear
under the rain
while trying to run away
from both
is pointless
and with no point
no focus
whereas love is always around
as long as an eye
is kept on it
receiving unworthiness
with soft tenderness
and a cup of tea
might be
a new way to greet
an old friend
gaining awareness of having entered
the underworld of the underworld
where no shadow of grievous sadness
can reach
is in its own mysterious way
a tender relief
being able to respond to
the unexpected
might be a step into
the vastness of freedom
surrendering to the call
also while
the call is not
of any glory
but a peace so subtle
it can easily pass
unnoticed
listening inwards
is not done
by creating space and time
to be able to do so
listening inwards also requires
being available
to take into account
whatever surfaces
another cold morning
potent with purpose
kindled with care
honouring the honesty
of being aware
calling situations
and circumstances
by their proper name
is essential
to be able to forgive
hence move on
while as long as forgiveness is withheld
whatever might not be forgiven
tend to turn against
ourselves
leaving behind
inadequate behaviour
by leaving the state of survival
to enter a state of joy
as spring unfold unrelentingly
in every girl and boy
