Poem

I die
to who I am not
to my anger and resentment
to my fear of ridicule and rejection
to my hurts and misgivings.
to my being vengeful and unforgiving
to my self-sufficiency and isolation
to my contempt of self and others.

I live
for I was born clothed and embellished
in the life of the universe.
Within me is a mystery beckoning to life.

I die
let go of my paralyzing thoughts -
"I am not good enough."
"I can't."
"I am not as good as the other."

I live
faithful to who I am
for I am more than my thoughts.
I am the universe in self-communication.
I am a unique creation; no need to compare.
I am life's vibration
a moment's expression; no need to compete.
Without my fidelity
to who I am, the universe shrivels.

I die
let go of my alienating feelings -
"Hell is the other."

I live with others, giving and receiving
even when it hurts.
Through it all, perhaps, heal one another
for I am more than my feelings.
I came from the Generosity of the universe --
Love that is in everything that lives.
When I condemn the other to hellfire
I, too, am condemned
When I forgive unconditionally
I, too, am forgiven.

I rise in jubilation.
My spirit soars
for within me is a passion for life.
I let life take hold of me
relishing my gifts -- my person, my mind
my spirit, the powers of my heart
believing in the bounty of life
loving others as I love myself
thanking life for entrusting itself to my care.

I live on
in the cadence of dying and rising
cherishing the constant flow of chastened strength
cradled in the womb of transforming love
risking death to live anew for the universe is Life.
And every act of Life is Love.
And every act of Love is life-giving.
