Being 7/15/2025

To be
Or not to be
An age-old question
That has perplexed
Many minds
When asked
To answer
This simple
Demand.

Perhaps
It’s simplicity
Makes us confused
Not sure how
To just be
When we are
Always doing.

Using awareness
Perhaps within
The words
To be
Is a sacred space
Known as being.

Being something
Is to fully embody
A characteristic
To its fullest expression
In order to achieve
What is meant
To be
In the moment.

So instead of
Searching for love
Learn
To be love
And
Watch life
Unfold
Miraculously.
