Continuous Allowing

Continuous allowing:

this continuous allowing - and it's all I truly find; that every thought, object and event has free reign through my existence. What I am is the acceptance of all things and this includes my contradictions and demands. I am without choice to how life unfolds and unsure of my any response until each moment happens. It's all too spontaneous and free for me to plan. 

yet plans happen, choices are made. 

it's the paradox of living; my every response is entirely of the moment, and even what seems a future plan happens in the immediacy of now. My response is always to any current thought or occurrence. So too with choice; that life offers only a fresh turn of events and I have little (if any) say to how it flows. I am not the one to choose tragedy or even joy, and how I respond is dictated by each situation. But always and exactly in the moment that it happens. 

and so life is a continuous allowing - and I am part of this as well, not separate in anyway. What I find myself to be is capacity for it all, everything, intermingled to the point that life unfolds as my own occurrence. Seamless. That's the truth of emptiness; that it's not void of any sense of being but open as an intimate embrace to all the world. 

emptiness allows.

with this, nothing is excluded, it's the true middle way of being. Without denying anything, I am free as life's response to itself in every way. There's no practice to this, it's not a belief, nor method. It's simply life as my natural involvement, at ease with every paradox and the mystery of each moment. It's a continuous allowing. 

and I belong.
