Secret Gravitation
By Bill Cottringer
All of life is being pulled
To where it has always been,
By one great mystery—
A secret gravitation of charity.
We are all born for one thing;
Given this life to be—
To understand this mystery,
Seeing what it means to be free.
But we waste much time,
Desperately avoiding the mystery;
Knowing freedom by how we think,
Not listening to the spirit we feel.
Isn’t it a bit odd?
That we just forgot
To give the charity we want,
With the freedom we have.
As we finally see—
The answer to the mystery,
Is gravitation of charity;
Living and giving to be free.
