Something is changing
As I enter into this stream
I don’t fully understand it, yet I proceed, trusting, flowing with the waters of life
Trying to stay afloat, stay between the two opposing shores of despair and escape
In the middle, always trying for the middle
Carried along, by life itself
Something is changing
Forces are in motion, stirring, bubbling, mixing it all up
The power of it all is beyond me, to fully know, to fully grasp
All of a sudden the world is new, full of mystery and delight
But always the question, the question, the question…
Something is changing
The people, the people around me
Who are these strange, loving souls
Have they been here all along, but I did not see
How could I not see
Something is changing
Me, us, all of it

“When the ego breaks open (shatters), then you see who you really are…”
Beautiful, mesmerizing picture!
ALL has been here all along…… You have been kneeling by the edge of the river…… Your beautiful MAYA has pulled you Into the swift running waters of the primordial power……. The Self…. The I Am. Allow yourself to lose yourself in its’ flow….
This is why a human birth is so rare…. We are the only species to be born in Oneness, lose the connection, experience separateness, and have the ability to become One with the great I AM, once again. Namaste
Mathew, all these years that I have known you, we have not had personal conversations. It is precious to share this time with you, and I am grateful for your generosity in being so open.
What an amazing gift Maya concocted for your birthday! The image of you all against the rainbow balloon is so joyful and freeing.
