A short little poem about our dual realities.

 The Reality Twins

By

 Bill Cottringer

 

Our twin realities—

One we look at,

The other sees us,

One we listen to,

The other hears us,

One is our ego,

The other our self,

One is time-controlled,

The other timeless,

One is all the parts,

Traps and problems,

Which we invented,

The other the unity,

Freedom and solutions,

Which are always there,

Our egos,

Think and feel,

And judge and do,

Inside the material realm,

Our selves,

Understand and accept,

And live and love,

Inside the spirit world,

Both have one purpose,

To let us know,

Which is which,

Because we all know,

Where our best selves live.

Introspection, and reaching for those better feeling
thoughts will help us keep in touch with our better
Selves…
To quote The Beatles song…
‘All you need is Love..’

Best wishes,
Diana…🌺

Let us hope that our good exceeds our evil. Lately here in Houston, there seem to be a lot of angry people pulling out their pistols, or worse, their automatic rifles and shooting others on the roadways, in businesses and even in their homes, killing small children along the way.

So honest, so true, and
so enlightening! Slightly crispy to read,
but packed with wisdom!
