Human Essence

The Essence of Being Human is to constantly shed layers, discarding what never was, restoring what always is, in an effort to once again see clearly, and think and act more carefully, hold those I truly love close near me, discerning what will tear me, and expel tears from me, have to take care of me and filter the bad air we breathe, so I can face reality, and not be fooled by what wasn't again, and finally live happily, cause life is better than this, it has to be, a gift in itself, too short to miss when your fast asleep. Time to wake up my beloved, just open your eyes again and you will see, a life lived out of love effortlessly, how it was always meant to be, don't let it slip away again so easily, life is a true beauty and let be what will be, always lovingly, and in your heart you will find Me, and figure out what being truly fulfilled means, and avoid any more of the bee stings.
