Am I doing life right? Is this the way to go?…a poem

Am I doing life right?

So begs the question

Is this the way?

Do I step here?

Anybody?

Anyone?

Is this the way?

Or should I step over there?

Or should I turn there…?

…and there again?

Can anyone show me how to do life right?

…how to be God’s child?

…a real woman?

So tug these questions hour by hour…

Yet no hint of this is given outwardly…

Lest we succumb to our deepest fear…

That of another perhaps seeing for a single moment…

That we don’t have a long range plan per se,

but we know how to manage each thought…each moment.

And day after day and month after month

What we find again and again is that by refusing to react to the question

Aggravates it much!

And it asks louder and louder and some days more incessantly…

“Is this the way to all that Life is about….IS THIS THE WAY TOWARD RIGHT LIFE or should I turn around???”

 

But we learn to respond not…

For no response ever works…

That questioning only is satisfied by the outward surface appearance.

And we are about a much deeper longing — that to live true oneness.

To prove the spiritual fact of our real identity..that of Spirit’s image and likeness.

And this endeavor has no map except consecrated devotion.

And this endeavor has no right or wrong save for total conviction.

And this quest is one that begins and ends with the one Mind.

And this quest defends Mind is steering each moment every single time.

 

And we learn to shift our focus from “how to be” to

How is Love being?

And we learn to devote there and this halts all appearing and seeming.

For we learn that fear is nothing more than a momentary thought hiccup

A belief we could ever be separated from the One steering each moment…

And we see this and we stand strong…

Til the next doubt occurs

And we temporarily –so it seems – fall down…

Yet all that’s happened ever is thought gets that much stronger

And we stand…

unmoved…

unimpressed…

unduped…

yet again.

And we hug our heart and nod within…

For we have found our forever map and way in Love’s being.

In the being the Mind that knows no limits…

In living that Love that abundantly supplies good to all no lack, no restriction…

In insisting on the presence of good here and now…

In advocating everyone’s ability — in thought — to feel how loved they are.

YES, the quest of right Life is ever continuing…

But these days less of questioning “Is this the way?”

And more being Love, day by day
