To Be Diligent

To be idle is a short road to death and to be diligent is a way of life; foolish people are idle, wise people are diligent.~Buddha

Careful with thought, aware of our next steps..as not to disrupt the existing peacefulness within the Canvas of Life.We are to remain mindful of our every being…as not to be disturbed by the natural chaos of that which blinds us.

The Length of my Hand

I return seated once again in the dark, in that dark place within my being. But I find nothing, darkness…alone.
In the distance there is a small light I cannot reach. Silent…only my thoughts remain. Reaching for the light…I still cannot grasp it.
Unattainable by the length of my hand, I return to my heart. Through my heart I see the light…I am the light. Opening the eyes of flesh…it is gone.
Retreating to my heart to see all I need to see…the darkness vanishes, the light returns. The world around me is illuminated, awaiting my thoughts to be infused…
