Allowed To Simply Be

Allowed to simply be: 

all things allowed to simply be - and that's the secret of the world, that everything follows its own way, while belonging to some greater motion still. We rest in this awareness, no longer prone to argue against our own true nature, allowing the world to be exactly as it is, even as we work for things to change. It's the paradox of living. Everything belongs, but never longer than its length of stay. Through this we find a certain peace. 

natures follows this, that every bird knows its own particular way, guided by instinct and lessons learned by trials of flight and search for food. A bird knows its individual way, without argue of its course, nor challenge to whatever condition it might find. Every shift of wind is allowed, and every bit of rain, and still each bird stays true to flight and song. 

this too shows a greater belonging, a larger motion of the world - that wind and rain follow the way of their own pattern, a cooperation of events that allow a time for storms. A bird acts through what is given, whatever pattern that appears. They adapt their way to the ever greater way, infinitely at peace within the world. 

it's our way too - we are not removed from nature, we have our own flight within life's storms, adapting to its rainfall and every shift of wind. It's our secret. Intuitively we know that all things are allowed to simply be, that we run with nature's course and our every action belongs as well. 

we are true to our way - and the ever greater way that follows still.
