Blameless

Blameless:

it's now, that I find myself blameless - this moment is recognized though innocence, a forgiveness that carries no blame from whatever previously appeared. Nothing has existed quite like this before, it's a new world of just this moment, and there is no true past to cast my judgement on. There's just this, all that's happening now for the first time. In this light - the world is blameless. 

only memories are ever judged, and blame is always cast to a previous response. In this way, to forgive is simply a recognition of first innocence, cleansing the moment from any past beliefs held present. It's simply acceptance, that right now is all that truly exists between us, and that even memories belong to the appearance of this moment. 

to see the world without blame, and more to know myself as blameless too for all that's come before - and yet I come to this moment wiser, reborn to an innocence that wishes to atone. Existence is current, and what I sometimes find is a present moment filled with regret, thoughts of blame, and condemnation of myself and others. The world doesn't always feel blameless. But all this appears now, in this moment, and it's all I have to own. There is really nothing to atone for simply for the reason that only now exist. To accept this - is forgiveness. To honor the present moment, this rebirth of innocence, is atonement. It's not complicated....

everything appears now.

so too does compassion, a wish of love to others and myself from moments of before, and a desire to share a kinder world.
