this river we call life

i allow myself to feel profoundly at peace, in spite of the chatter, the chaos, the confusion within, i bring myself closer to the heart of my soul, wherein lies the fresh, fragrant, fertile soil of life where sweet love grows in a climate of trust, and i find joy, the joy of bliss, blissfully participating in this river we call life, flowing and meandering and rushing over large, round stones under dark blue skies filled to the brim with morning sunshine and birdsong, all around me, all through me, all in a moment of awe, now and forever and always here, there, and everywhere sitting, standing, sliding into a current everlasting with all that was, is, and will be, knowing well, in any given moment, that i might not ever walk this earth again, realizing here and now that i am one with all, and all that is one is one with me, the one and all that is one in me.
