The Human Condition

It would seem to me that all

Things

are on a course

consisting of myriad layers and dimensions.

It brings to mind the concept of the

Human

condition.

We weave

In

and

Out

of one another's lives as threads of fate.

We impress upon each other with our unique colors and shapes.

We are bound to the tapestry we are making and made up of.

With every connection we make

Every shared fiber

We discover our colors of

Soul

We grow brighter, more vibrant, and as we expand

We grow

Lighter

More formless

less

dense.

We become

Boundless.

With this Divine trajectory, this guarantee of

Light...

Comes the certainty of cost

The inevitable

Night...

This toll is a home

Just like the day

For it is in Darkness that we rest

and in Day's light that we play

Like Shiva, the unseen rests dutifully beneath us

A foundation for the foot of our vibrancy

It is this Pain that opens the door to our Joy

It is in the Sacrifice

That we may Receive and Give Life.

We are both Life and Death in eternal

Love

Making.

We are their infinite children.

Both unbound by our Constructs and undeniably defined by them.

It would seem to me then, that our mission

Is to Transmute

Unity from our Division

Universal values from our Religions

One culture from our Traditions

Wouldn't it be striking

To look back at the tapestry of our Acts

And know

That it is from these, that we have risen?

I pray we make that collective decision

For me Must

Give Back

That which we have been Given

As waves we must return to the ocean we swim in

This

To me

Is the Human Condition.
