As years go by
t´was only like yesterday
today, all the bygone years
are blown by the wind
to become an untraceable path.
Need to gather my thoughts
see how life has been
where I am now
what do I want
where I want to.
My being exists
and is, because I`m from God
my borrowed life for 48 years
is sufficient and beyond
what I expect and dream of.
What I thought
I can only live for 25 years
God gave me
23 years more
can I desire for 23 more years?
I have only today to account for
to enjoy and consciously spend
only TODAY, just for TODAY
I sincerely thank God
for completing my 48 years of life.
Tomorrow begins another year
a new day marks in the calendar
clock tic-tacs
and gifts unwrap
may the new year be full of concordance.
(on my birthday, August 7, 1962)
As a Christian woman, the octave of Easter 2010 brought in me a vibrant promise on how to be a free person. Freedom means to be on top of my own ego, desire and mindset. An acceptance of the true self. In the Zen tradition, Sekito (Shitou in Chinese) said, "the expansive sky does not obstruct the floating white clouds". My free thoughts and feelings expressed in this blog is a witness that life is meant to be lived fully, freely, mindfully and joyfully.
