Nothing Is - And Everything Belongs

in deep appreciation of 

my absence - 

for it allows the world to be

~

There is no self that is solid, permanent, and understands the world - and yet there is life giving it's appearance as a person capable of navigating it's mystery in a unique fashion. To look for a complete self that is separate from any aspect of life is to find a collection of parts that never add up to the whole. But for parts to exist there needs to be a cohesiveness, a spaciousness of being that allows for what seems to be a separation. And there we are - that very spaciousness, empty of all but an allowing nature for life to carry on. 

Nothing is apart from this. 

Nothing is apart from us. 

Nothing is...

and everything belongs.
