Version 2.0 May 31, 2010
The root seed of aggression
is assigning blame to the cause of conflict
arising within us – to someone else.
When we hold someone else accountable for our mischief,
we make someone else's business, our business.
And the mischief blossoms …
We place such stress upon ourselves,
in our rush and race to our
self-imposed, self-contrived finish lines.
We buy into these polarizing times.
we hustle down dark, dead-end alleys,
we forget our softness
our yielding,
our interconnectedness.
The sheer momentum of six.five billion humans,
striving to survive,
wanting the best possible life for themselves
and their children.
So many heightened expectations.
Lifestyles so out of balance,
when contrasted to the simplicity of flowing
with life's humble blessings.
See everyone as your family,
by being patient and kind.
Let your intentions flow
into the sweet spots
where authentic generosity and abundance is grown.
As other's lives are flooded,
their own bridges washed away,
let us all be touched and reshaped
by the heartfelt sense of feeling united in family.
