You
[ Why do you keep walking in fear?
    If you'd just listen...
Cut out all the thinking and hear
    What you're missing... ]

Here is my suggestion,
    Try it on your heart...
Lose your mind's connection,
    Life's ready to start...

Invest the next few minutes
    Looking for your being...
Notice the next sentence:
    This is all a dream...

Stop your thoughts from running;
    Take the time to see...
The fiction you're becoming
    Is not reality...

You are the one that sees,
    You are the one that notices,
You are the one that is aware
You are the ONE.
You are ONE.

I am you and you are me.
I am us and you are we.
You are. I am.
I am.
I.

You are the one that is aware of the fact that your brain is
translating these words into electrical signals called thoughts.

You are the one that is watching yourself read.
You are the one that knows you are reading.

You are the one that knows.

You are NOT the one that is wondering why this stopped being a poem
and became something entirely different.

You are the one that KNOWS why.
You are the one that sees through these words into their deepest meaning.

Stop thinking. Open your heart and ponder these words slowly, over and over,
until you feel your soul burst in the joy that it is.

The joy that YOU ARE.

Again.

YOU ARE.
LOVE. LOVE is. You are/is/was/will be.

Peace. Be still and know.

I AM THAT I AM.

Confused? No you're not. Your mind is. Your soul is smiling in recognition.

Life is about recognizing that recognition.
Life is about LOVE.
Life is about YOU.

Whoever you think you are... I WROTE THIS FOR YOU.

Not your body. Not your mind. Not your personality. Not your story...

YOU.

:)
If this seems crazy, you are not ready. If it seems sane, you are close. If you recognize it... you are home.
