Just because we desire to share
A peculiar dialogue
Born in aging bones
Of another lifetime
When youthful spirit
And the poise of direction
Still had to be formed
I can clearly understand
Your reason
To look further into the understanding
Of law, being,
Edict and creation
Still, there is an overwhelming yearning
To clarify the incentive of motive
That is, what you plan to achieve
When you finally arrive
At the horizon of self, shadow,
Life and death
Transmuting the voice
You hear from unspoken lips
As it reaches the heavens
Responding to unanswered questions
And realized dreams
Reciting imaginary poetry
awesome sky pic...and outcome, who knows? transmutation, ultimate personal peace, or just the knowing you were able to listen with a semblance of clarity...lovely tone to this piece Jude
:)) Oh, I think so... but there is also God, whom I shall always believe as being the external ultimate life-giver and sole arbitrator on the whole of existance as we know it... and even as we don't. This has the same gentle probing feel, to me at least, as Hidden Caves (unless it's just that stunning graphic!), asking questions of the deeper consciousness on levels that we may as yet be completely unaware of. You are right to take us to these higher echelons of thinking and what they reveal... it's what happened to Eve in the Garden when the perfection of the life-sustaining friendship was shown not to be enough for her; she had to have omniscience and omnipotence as well. But, what am I planning to achieve when I finally arrive at that place of the removal of all veils and the revelation of Truth? I have meditated this hard and long, and, for someone who lives their whole conscious (and unconscious) life in the light of the belief that the Ultimate is the real Reality, then I have to say that in all honesty I haven't quite figured that out yet! Peace and intimacy are very high on the list of heavenly attributes. Knowing and Being Known. Things becoming crystal clear. As Susan says below me here, the transition from Becoming to Being would be the ultimate, probably; a time when all the restlessness of perpetual motion can be stilled. And a good Judean head massage thrown in would just about crack it, I reckon! :)) Let us know the time and place of this Shared Horizon and we'll be there in our droves... Love KinetiK Kate xx
Yes we are Jude. Once we love ourselves and find the answers we seek then the focus changes to being...just being content with harmony. That is enough for me.
Love and blessings!
Merry Christmas!
Susan

Now that is the thing most do not think about. When we arrive at our destination........what are we going to do? It is seeing ourselves in this spot as if it is now that brings it into reality isn't it? A vision I am still working on LOL. Wonderful insightful write.
