Just Sit

Just sit:

just sit - as if at this moment everything belonged, that nothing possibly could be out of place, and things could only be exactly as they are. Each breath will fall perfect on its own, heartbeat continuing in its rhythm, and every function cared for. Not a single thought is out of place, no emotion found without reason or need of validation. 

just sit as if everything belongs.

and of course it all does - what's found each moment is all that's available now, changing on its own, and no wish, no demand, will make it at all otherwise. Yes, there is a will to respond, action, perhaps even a choice in what we'll offer - but nothing changes what a moment holds, what belongs right now, and with this recognition, we give our best response. 

this is really the essence of meditation, natural, finding ourselves in easy acceptance of all the world offers.With this, our dislikes are equal to what we favor - not in terms of our reaction, but in a knowing that we only have this exact moment at hand, it's this, whatever's now present, that we find ourselves responding to. 

acceptance isn't passive.

our very nature is dynamic, a constant shift of molecule's dancing our creation. Our reality of one of change, motion, and allowing. To ask of us to just sit is really a request to simply be this motion, to recognize ourselves as dancing with and as creation. That's what we accept, that we a process, changing to a moment's notice, and that no effort to escape this will ever be applied. 

to just sit is to be alive.
