Just Awake

I am not removed from pain, or suffering, nor 

faults that seem to need 

forgiveness. 

Just awake

And in this I find a

difference 

~

It's not that I don't seek to correct myself, to take what seems the proper course of action, or even to avoid pain and any suffering that may follow. It's that all this merely happens within the larger context of awareness. 

I am not witness to life. 

I am awake to all that happens. 

And it's enough to 

simply be. 

Peace,

Eric
