Because I Live - Mr

I Am as I Am, vibrant, centred and complete ~ I dance to the rhythm of God’s magical bliss beat ~ quote by poet Because I live, my heart wishes to know Who in truth am I, what keeps me aglow Trapped in the open, I am free within Dwelling in silence, I am free from sin It’s clear that in futile mind games I’m caught Body ages but innocence does not Memory reveals that life’s but a dream Looking back I smile at thoughts I did stream In staid silence, I yet remain aware Free from fears and desires, my soul’s stripped bare All that remains is love and light and bliss I exult from the rooftops, ‘I am this!’ Because I live and this truth I now know I repay daily, debts of love I owe There is no further doing to be done For my mind, body, soul and God are one 06-April-2023 BECAUSE I LIVE Poetry Contest Sponsor: Mystic Rose Rose

"........my soul’s stripped bare All that remains is love and light and bliss I exult from the rooftops, ‘I am this!’" If one can say this with conviction, what a blissful life it is! Continue to stay blessed. Congratulations on your win dear Seeker friend.

It’s something like the movie ‘The Matrix’. We are trapped in a thought vortex and identify so completely with thinking that we cannot do without it, whilst dwelling in silence, we see clearly who we are. There is no point in proclaiming the truth because each person must choose to be still. Only then can the truth be known, which is always present but is veiled by thought/attachment. If it wasn’t so tragic, it would be comical actually.
