Poem

Thinking in Separation from All That IS

Because myself is this flow of thoughts itself
I call another thought to bind it to me forever
to make it secure
but they are like birds
that fly in front of me
all of the time

Because myself is this flow of feelingsI call another feeling to bind it to me forever
to make it secure
but they are like birds
that fly in front of me
all of the time

Because myself is this flow of words
I call another word to bind it to me forever
to make it secure
but they are like birds
that fly in front of me
all of the time

And I don’t want to let them go.

What do you want?

 "Most people tell you they want to get out of kindergarten, but don't believe them. Don't believe them! All they want you to do is to mend their broken toys. 'Give me back my wife. Give me back my job. Give me back my money. Give me back my reputation, my success.' This is what they want; they want their toys replaced. That's all. Even the best psychologist will tell you that, that people don't really want to be cured. What they want is relief; a cure is painful." --Anthony De Mello - he was an Indian Jesuit priest and psychotherapist, spiritual teacher, writer and public speaker.

"Refuse to act according to the dictates of society. Just let yourself be. No matter how old you think you are becoming, refuse to act old. Refuse to think old. Refuse to feel old. Refuse to walk old. Refuse to let clichés, such as, 'You are not getting any younger,' or any other limiting beliefs penetrate your psyche and make you afraid. Refuse to let yourself be defined and limited by clichés! "-from Lesson 14: Rising Above Clichés.
