Not escape from,
or eradicate,
or divorce ourselves from.
To co-exist with
the fear,
the urge to control,
the need to confine through defining;
to encourage the subtle to emerge
and achieve expression - to be birthed into this world.
To co-operate with
rather than resist
the evolutionary urge.
To actively follow the sense of urgency
and usher in subtler and subtler possibilities.
To bootstrap each other out of our respective
pits of despair
and darkness and the densities
surrounding our living out of control;
to taking control,
to take the next step
beyond the threshold
and participate
in actively following
whatever is needed;
to shift the ego’s cry
from
“I want …”
to
“What’s needed is what I want to actively follow and help to manifest”.
That which is subtle
becomes visible
becomes heard
becomes felt
as we shift ourselves to a different vantage point,
a new level of sensitivity and receptivity
a willingness to trust in what wants to unfold.
