say thank you for all the good things in your life

and share them with others

say thank you when you are faced with challenges, prejudice and danger

and be still

say thank you when you know the course of action

that you need to take

when in doubt

say thank you

true wisdom

is not happiness

it is  both universal and intimate

knowingness

empowered by

compassion

wisdom without compassion

is knowingness  through willpower

mind

fulness

looks

after

itself

we, each of us

are

in between

the was and when

the is and now

the why and how

each day is your day

each day is your creation

each day is your legacy and history

each day is your exclamation of who and why you are

each day is your greatest acheivement

and your path for living

you are each day

people are united by their prejudices

some call it discrimination

some call it belief

some call it blindness or a blessed relief

people dwell in canopies of intricate ignorance

and find it hard to invite original thought

to free their minds

what do you believe and how are you trapped by it?

whether it be you believe that what buy you will get

or what you believe to be false is false

belief looks after itself,it doesn’t need people to prosper

listen

to the sound of your breath

in the speech of other people

essentially….

the buddha never came

or was here

nor jesus the teacher

or yogi the bear

essentially

there is nothing here

but the mental pulsations and cognitive vacilations

that spin the wheel

for you to feel that you are here

essentially

each and every event within our life

is an invitation

and opportunity

to be at rest

regardless of what is going on around us

what do you know

of how the way things are?

things are the way you see them

things are the way you breathe them

things are the way you react to them

things are the way you hold on to them

things are the way you love or hate them

essentially, things are the way they are

because of their inherent nature

the world is the result of itself, its not here for your benefit

your life, however, is the strand upon which you can

hang all your aims,wishes and desires

like little birds chirping on a line

celebrate your life as the way things are
