The Magic and Mystery of this moment

Early this morning… lying in bed… “pondering” as I am want to do…

I asked myself… “What do I know for sure… What is my message in life?”

Hmmm… I don’t know… maybe… and then it hit me… 

The Magic of the Moment!

This moment… this instant… whatever is “happening”… right now.

There is a silence… effortless… and peaceful.

No words can describe it… or label it… 

It feels like floating… an early morning mist… then disappearing into the sky.

Nothing to do… or think… just breathe… just be…

Feeling the joy of being alive… a presence…

A  sense of “oneness”… with everything… and everyone.

There is no-me… no-you… no separate self…

Just life living and life-ing each moment.

Then my mind jumps in and gives thoughts their due… 

I create a “story”…  about that “special me”… 

where I hide from the “magic of the moment”.

Wow… when I turn my attention away from “my thoughts and my story”…

and Look from the Spacious Awareness of “Who I am”… 

I relax… let go… surrender… 

knowing Life is in charge.

Peace at last…

Love,

William
