Life After Death...
It happens so fast and then it is over,
Truth shifts the space to stone cold sober.
Great loss, life changes, and the very end,
Stretching the soul - it can no longer bend.
The Earth experiences are intensifying,
The daily death toll has been multiplying.
Praying and visualizing, seeing the best,
The darkness has a Light inside to digest.
Liberation, freedom, letting it all go,
A life filled with lessons we need to know,
As painful as they are, they help us grow.
Up and out of this Dark Age of Kali Yuga,
Meditating and breathing like the Buddha.
Acknowledging life's pains and suffering,
Employing behaviors toward restructuring.
Whether the changes are forced upon us,
Or they become a topic to discuss,
We have to take action and then trust.
There are various unwanted behaviors,
The lesson is to stop blaming the neighbors.
If we see it then it lives inside,
No longer blaming, nowhere to hide.
Gifts and mirrors, we manifest every moment,
Blessings of change or reflective atonement.
Awareness is the gift to awaken us to see,
How who and what we choose to be,
Is one limb on the grand Living Tree,
My choices affect you, and yours affect me,
Until we heal inside, we are never truly free.
The way we breathe and the way we eat,
Who we are when we experience defeat.
Our attitudes and choices of deed and word,
Choices on whether to follow the herd.
This lifetime is sacred, and it all matters,
Listening to the heart, avoiding the chatter.
Having the strength to get up and rise,
After falling down or watching what dies.
Once the pain is finally released,
When the heart is calm and there is peace,
Then Loving actions and gifts increase.
Life becomes the greatest blessing,
Faith sets in and we stop the guessing.
We are in a process of evolving,
There is no problem that need solving.
Go with the flow of the natural rhythms,
Be honest and make Loving decisions.
This lifetime is here as a school,
Receiving lessons and gaining tools.
Every moment is a gift and a treasure,
An opportunity to be a little better.
