The Present

I asked, of a sage, to give me the way;

He gave me the answer... the right words to say...

 

"Treat the present moment as holy,

and holy will be the moment's present.

Treat the ones you will meet as yourself,

then you will learn that they're heaven sent.

 

Treat yourself with love and respect,

and you will soon realize that you are true Love;

Treat your heart as the door to the soul,

and you will soon learn that You Are from Above.

 

Nothing in life is an accident,

There is no chance or coincidence.

 

All that IS has always been,

Everything is from within.

 

Change the way you look at things

to change the things you look at;

Change the way you see the light

to change yourself into that.

 

You Are everything You want.

You Are everything You need.

You Are nothing that you aren't.

You Are everything you seek.

 

Choose to believe,

Choose to receive,

Choose to accept

That you are what you see.

 

This then, will teach you,

That You have it all;

Just let your Self reach you,

And down blessings fall.

 

Love yourself.

Love one another.

Love the Now.

And look no further."
