Live NOW,
my friend,
fully and completely
in the presence
of you,
and not in
the slicing
and blood-letting
of Yesterday’s
regrets,
or in the unrelenting ambitions
and dis-ease
wrought by
Tomorrow
that tosses you
in uncertainty
and shifts you
from the joy of NOW.
Live NOW
in the beautiful resolution
that you are
no more
and no less
than any other
being,
so you are
filled generously
with value
which you can
radiate to others
in waves of
compassion
and care.
Live NOW
in the certainty
of you
and in the refuge
of contentment,
and there you
will find
inner healing.
