Eagerness of accomplishment is bridled
by the acceptance of unachieving being.
Unbridled eagerness to accomplish
turns to rush, which neglects and
squanders the gifts of present moment.
The eagerness to verify is quieted by
the remembrance and trust in what is.
Trust opens and cleans the channels
that allow the soul to flow.
Eagerness to bear fruit unbridled
grows unready fruit.
The wise, exquisite ripener lives
in the depths of the unknown.
Hence we act and pray and build
for our lives are but the tools
with which He sculpts Himself.
We know us in the times we feel stable. When there is comfort, certainty, contentment and labels, we known and have marked who we are.
Who are we in the times in between? In the times of nebulous transition? When anxiety shivers and tries to shake us back to a place of comfort? When tensions within pull and urge us to snap back to the charted grid?
When fears named and nameless speed up our heartbeat and spur us to flee?
Who are we then?
We must notice
and hold
and stay
and allow
and sink
and feel
and see
to find out.
