Then we breathe

Sometimes there is only silence
It’s dark
It’s cold
There is still
The moon shines

We sit alone
We observe
We wait
We see
We hear

The inhale of breath
The exhale follows
There’s the gap
Between the exhale
And the new breath

There in the gap
There is life
There is the moment
There is the connection with all
There is the universe

Silence is life
The stillness teaches
The moment unfolds
Without sound
Then we breathe

Our perceived lack

The universe gives us everything that we need, there are opportunities there for us all in every unfolding moment.

However, we miss most of them, if not all, because we are to busy wondering in our minds what the future might be, where the opportunities will come from and how miserable we are that we do not have what we want to see now, this moment and what is there.

When we are conscious, we truly see, rather than seeking in our mind and suffering from our perceived lack.
