perspective

Rate this Entry
words;
words can be helpful,
but perspective is important.

it seems like,
all my life i wasn't able to really learn,
but now i am,
and i learned something which seems to be really true, because it's universal;
but it can't be explained by words or perspective.
but it's universal.

no longer trying to attain to supreme happiness,
only being aware and mindful, and experiencing deeply all that comes in my path,
thankful, grateful, for life, for clear-perception and truth and deep feeling,
for intelligence and transcendence and integration,
grateful, for the correct, for the universal,
i experience and live my life, and gather experience.
life is perhaps dry, and god sends the rain the soothes the mind,
and messages come in universal form, that are understood by all;
it's quite easy; we know all the ideas,
reality is the water which we are in;
we are "bewildered."
but universal messages come through, and reach us here from infinity.
all the true ideas that we know...
that universal messages tell us;
not to heed the negative.
yes, we are aware.
words can't express;
but how easy it is,
when you know.
not that- no, when you know.
the only thing to know is the positive, affirmation.
the only thing to know is love;
and health,
god's love.

be there no god, or be there god,
there still is reality,
and still our world is false in light of a more true one.

the truth is, you exist now,
and in the future.
all ideas of hope, let us have them;
let us know them,
let us bear the beams of love.

in our own way,
our own perspective,
our own being, our own truth, our own love,
equal to that, the love which we see.
let us break down the barriers and live,
now we see things deeply.

for, i see a stranger,
ah, he is strange.
but i love him, so much, it hurts when he leaves.
the truth is difficult...

nothing stops the spirit,
not the spirit that has broken through.

and we can be reborn.
the only crime is to go the other direction, away from the light,
to turn from god;
we are told,
do not create attachment,
but be attached to god,
and surrender to god.

but let me be mute.
the eternal struggle,
the truth is, it is not reality.

grateful, and thankful, for love, for vision, for knowledge;
ah, you give me an angel.
him i love.
it hurts to see him leave, but i am okay alone.

how strange this is how strange this is.
i would not have known this. i would not have seen.
how grateful i am, though, for love and knowledge.
for your peaceful knowledge.
for this.

    And we are back to the poetry that I'm not sure what's going on. This meant with respect. I guessing the theme here is --acceptance and hope for the future life ahead??

    This seems like quite a vast personal quest to me... this is the first time I've read your poetry, and I enjoyed it.


    and i learned something which seems to be really true, because it's universal;

    ^that spoke to me with particular clarity.

    "bewildered" is a reference to Emerson's saying "we are bewildered by these phenomena into thinking they're real." that is, when he's contrasting wordlly phenomena to basically-equivalent-to-the-platonic-idea of truer being. this is the highest truth i ever understood, and it is a positive thing, it's the most dramatically positive message there could ever be.

    yes, you are right, becca. i think it's necessary to undertake, though. it isn't difficult, it's just long. life is difficult if we think it is so difficult, but like eating right, for instance, is not difficult if we just do it, and don't obsess about it...i just mention that because i've noticed it to have an effect on my life. i just can't wait for change. i can't help anyone currently, for one. *sigh*
