Rise Above

Rise above the loquacious chatter
No sound need be heard
Silence
Liberating – we’re experiencing the manifestations of every word

Rise above the sights
Vision – so clearly we now see
Clarity
It exposes the flaws in our reality

Rise above the trivialities
Greater than all possessions and material things
Complete
Self-actualized - we become that which we can be

Silence is needed to hear truthful words
Clarity brings completeness - it allows us to purge	
Letting go of the past – embracing life’s reality
Rise above
Embody – all that one can be
