Everything is nothing (In a good way) :)

Don't spoil urges to speak by thinking of excuses not to.
Spoiling, spongues, it's likely lovers will meet.
And looking further, there is a song telling destinies story,
and it is a never ending song,
composed of every note and sound imaginable,
and more even.
It's a wonder to listen to string strummed harmonies,
and beyond that,
a silence underlying memories of feeling
pervading it all.
Don't stop to read.
Listen to what is being spoken through the words.
Underyling again.
A simple heart felt strum.
...........hummm................
Again, the silence remains,
with a blank page waiting.
It's ok to slow down even, and notice softness,
but don't stop.
The beauty comes within a reminder that truth is already speaking.
No need to keep up though.
That would only spoil the experience.
The point is to do nothing,
to say nothing,
and to be nothing,
and then to step away and notice what this nothing is.
Sometimes a breakthough will come,
but don't get too excited because it doesn't matter.
Nothing matters, and yet everything is beautiful.
Don't attempt to try to express it.
Be Still,
dance,
sing,
fall down,
let your voice crack,
slow down,
speed up,
rejoice,
and fall into an empty space.
All without judgement.
P.S. I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the true writers on this website, the writers that don't just write about the same thing. I am talking about the writers that truly express themselves and do not conform to anything. It is these few select individuals ( and you know who you are) who have expressed a quality of truth, honesty, realness, and depth in their writing that has allowed me to enjoy so much of my time here in the last few weeks. When people are aware of the truth in themselves, and express it in their lives, (like these writers I am talking about) other people will notice it. What I appreciate is the relationship between myself and these writers, because we are all connecting on that level of truth that is common in all of us, which unfies us, despite that fact that we have different styles of writing, or different expreiences that have influenced us. We are all different manifestations of that truth, but when we express it uniquely, we are connecting to the source of everything and everyone.
As Always,
Be True,
