No More Complete Than Now

 

No more complete than now:

when I am - as if there's ever a true arrival and not always here and now. This is it, the full extent of all I'll ever be in the most important sense of being. Yes, my views will most certainly shift, life will be expressed in different ways and I will grow to meet them, continuing too as a unique expression. I will change. But I will never become something other than the fullness now found, no more complete than now. There is no when in this expression - only the moment shifting in perspective. 

of course this is the language of time, measuring life through comparison and the contrast of events. I see my own life unfold through seasons, growing older, and seemingly becoming something other than before. Yet my sense of being aware, that which holds and observes without measure remains unaffected by it all. Life continues, untouched by my concerns. 

so it's a different language all together, perhaps not able to be spoken, written, but only experienced through life's expression. When I drop all expectations of becoming something - let's say enlightened, awakened, or simply more aware - there is only what I am right now, alive, complete in every aspect of just being. I always find that I'm enough, no need to add qualities to this sure existence, life itself provides my every mean without my expectations or interference. The language of being - is life. 

when I am - is now. This my moment to be alive, my moment of breath and heartbeat, to be aware and note in wonder of my own existence. Things will change. But I will never be other than this essential sense of being. Everything else is just a quality, an experience brought through life. It's never something that I become. I am - already.
