we have awakened . . .

we have Awakened

i awaken again this morning

intoxicated by life

addicted to each and every breath

each heart beat is yet another quixotic fix of joy

my soul dances in it’s own splendour

an exquisite knowing that there is an “us” in every “i”

and my spirit seeks a deep humility

for i am blessed

i look to the skies

and they fill me with something beyond my hopes

a certain knowing that there is more

i am more

you are more

and in some inherent and intrinsic way

my restlessness in life

finds peace

and the drifting of this seeking mind ceases

and i ask

how could i ever doubt

life

the outcome is but an illusion

for i am already in heaven

and in conclusion

i have come  to know this simple fact

we are already awakened

for if we were not

where would this consciousness reside

where can this truth hide

in dreams

in aspirations

in wishes

in prayers

in meditations perhaps

if it is our vision to see

we must be

open eyed

open Souled

and cease being Con - Souled

for we are

IS

and shall always BE

and then we “BE” come

intoxicated with the Truth

that this morning

we have Awakened
