What if…..

Quiet

We embrace the now moment as the only and let ourselves be that window pane through which unfiltered love pours forth like the spring time glow of a sun’s ray….unobstructed, unstoppable, unbroken.

Could we let go resentment long enough to ponder this transparency?

Could we unclasp bitterness and blame and in so doing free our hearts from harboring so much pain?

Why must we justify? accuse? shun? or deny?

What if we forgave…ourselves?

We might have to find a new focus for all that recycled condemning…all that cyclical murmuring..all that repeated noise we’ve hung onto for so long.

We might actually have to conceive of something else to consume our focus…and maybe that feels a bit ….unknown? unfamiliar? unnavigable?

But…what if therein lay the new journey?

And what if we took a step forward to embrace it?

We just might find that all that blame, guilt, shame we clung to gives way to space…

So much space that we may scurry around in thought for a while looking for the next filler.

But we could…perhaps….just pause in awe…of the quiet…newfound…peace.

What if?
