I want a new dialog. I want new words and new visions
because I am tired of listening to what is coming. “Coming” has no bearing on
our moment – but the moment has everything every thing to do with what will be
–
I want delicious, juicy, and enticing expressions from the
heart – the ones that hold me hostage the second they leave your mind. I want
emotion and designation dripping with substance - I know it is out there… Let’s
talk about it.
But I guess the present is far too boring for most, so the same
mantras project and persist like a bad advertisement for spirituality - (the
redundancy becomes insolent and so very annoying) because there isn’t a new paradigm; it is simply the old one
wrapped up in a pretty package, and the parallels haven’t shifted they are
still in alignment. I want that
old adage to melt away.
The universal voice is still crying aloud just as gravity
still pulls at the heartstrings. And nothing is darker than force that sucks
the life out of us when all our hopes are shattered by needless delusional mind
chatter.
We read and hear about a formidable future that no one could
possibly know of and then, the future shows up in a different form and all bets
are off when that ‘moment” rose without monumental change. Enter disappointment
– the sad are even sadder, and the believers turn to stone.
The only survivors are the ones who knew instinctively the
grandest miracles are afoot – and those miracles? They were just too ordinary
and obvious to speak about for the masses.
But appreciation can come in like a breath of fresh
air when we pause for just the slightest sound that lights up the
imagination. Remember that?
Remember what it is like to hear the distant bell, a cricket in the grass or
the trill of a bird in flight and talk about it?
Those are just a few of the important conversations that are
wafting around above us waiting to be captured again and embraced. Tell me, please tell me what you hear.
Hold my hand and give a small squeeze of acknowledgment with
your words. The premise might look
like this: Is it real? Is it
purposeful? Does it add merit to
the missing pieces of the moment so it doesn’t end up depending on a future
that hasn’t happened?
And while wasting time trying to manufacture prophecies of
brilliance and enlightenment takes the edge off a dull day (yes - I get that)
if it was only understood how much power we actually hold over our future
through conversation of immediacy; it would change the way we think and speak
about our “now”. We would certainly
talk with the highest amount of inner respect for more succulent vocabulary
toward our self and others.
Karma, (our echo) is power, intrepid and real – for better
or worse, it all returns.
Again, in terms of this moment… abundant gratitude will reign favorable.
So the dead ideals that are still aimlessly drifting and
alighting into the unconscious are vapid yet, systemic - and it is more than
time to bring an awareness to a society that is suffocating by an antiquated
“what if’” because tomorrow never comes.
Why create scenarios with insidious talk of doom and gloom
through repeated regurgitation of self-righteous atrocities? Past dramatic
scenarios come at a huge price and end up escalating the problems (keeping them
alive) instead of finding resolution; it also thwarts any progress in
purposeful language.
Let’s raise the bar to beautiful articulation with grace in
our hearts and our voice now.
It doesn’t have to be complex, we can converse in simplicity, one that has depth and meaning as
there is an abundance of subtly found in an
effortless, flowing, and real-time conversation. (dl)
