Shadows?
You
say you
feel
your life
is
simply
a
shadow
cast upon
the
wall of
time,
without meaning
or purpose,
a
random occurrence
without form,
just
function?
But ask yourself
are you seeing
truly?
So,
look deeper brother,
look deeper sister,
what is a
shadow
but
a revelation
of where the
light
is
already
resting?
Your body,
stardust,
forged in the heart
of a
fire aeons
old.
Not one
atom of
your existence
lives
now
that did
not also
then
see
the vast
distances
of space,
did not
fall through
the long generations
of
ancestors,
or pass
through
many shapes,
on its journey
to bestow
the form
your senses
perceive as
solid,
a form
called
to dwell
and
dance
with
Divine breath
in its
making of
your marvel
and your
shadow
until its covenant,
dissolved by
death,
liberates
love.
Look deeper brother.
Look deeper sister.
You see
out of infinite
possibility
you exist.
You.
Here.
Now.
For now
would be
incomplete
without
you;
your reason for
being
passing beyond
all causes
to the One
who
intended
you
and made you
necessary,
whose love
attends
your being,
moment
by
moment,
in-breathing love
lest you fall
away
into
nothingness.
No
shadow
you,
but a
place
of
graced luminosity
so bright
that dazzled by
your own
form
your inner eye
sees,
for now,
only
darkness
describing
a point
of light
so bright
that Divine Love
dims vision
until
you are
ready
to turn
from
shaped shadows
and face
fully
the brightness
of
your own
blessed
being.
