More Seamless Than Can Be Told

and then it comes to our surrender - through no willful effort of our own, each moment arrived at something new, even as we part from past. Truly though, these words are misleading - it's all more seamless than can be told. One thing never breaks to become another - air doesn't part to welcome the branches reach. There is no space between the sky and tree. This too is our surrender, life simply emerging through another new expression. We see this, it's displayed in all we witness, every moment in its arrival. Our surrender is simply life in its becoming.

Of Any True Meaning

and I would say that perhaps it's about potential meaning - that life itself is a bare template, existence in its pure allowing nature. It's not a choice for meaning, but a desire towards expressing what we are with every attribute and detail to be provided. It's seen from branch, to bud, and further on to blossom - it's life without projected meaning, each moment being only exactly what it is, fulfilled by the grace of it's surrender. It's then, that the branch gives itself to bud, and later still to flower. There was point where nature clung to a particular meaning, no rush in it's becoming, just the clarity of each moment being enough entirely on its own. 

 I'm not aware of any true meaning - and yet, it's this very same awareness that allows for any meaning to be found. 

In this light, I am potential to branch, to bud, and to flower - my meaning is existing, in every phase that is to follow.

The Coffee Sutra

and even a distant, past sun, that once nourished its

existence - is present in the 

morning cup, 

coffee holds the taste of light.

nothing is trivial - the smallest detail 

contains the whole.

Listening to Water

it's listening to water - from stillness offered from the depth of oceans, to the moment expressed by a rivers motions. It's a language of shifting note and meaning, inescapable from the silence that allows for it to be told. My own thoughts are a current sounding through awareness, and this listening provides a means for their expression. I am told nothing by water except to listen - it's a clear message, pure, and simple. I give these words now as my reply.

Belonging at Once To Branch and Sky

in becoming - constant, seamless, it's always one thing in shifting measures, never ending through infinite expressions. As a bud is fully itself, yet still belonging to branch, and soon a flowers reach to sky - there is no set point, a completion of its mission to become. It's always one thing changing only in appearance. This too is our own process, being life in essence and form, never not shifting in our measure and expression. We are as the bud - belonging at once to branch and sky.

In Infinite Expression

from just one thing, vast, and still given to minute detail - we find ourselves somehow aware of this existence. That we are individual, yet fully part of the whole, it's all expressed in a miraculous fashion. To see this, our wholeness, how large we truly are, and too our unique appearance in it all - is to awaken. Neither of these aspects negate the other. Seeing our fragility enhances the strength of our overall structure, a sense of loneliness is felt as a reach towards connection, our small belief in self becomes an openness to receive the world. It's seamless exchange, a shifting view of detail looking back to the greater capacity through which it is held. And that is what we awake to - that we are capacity and content, template and detail, one thing in infinite expression. So through this we see that nothing truly can be excluded, everything is simply another aspect of the whole. And this too - is our own belonging.

Reality of This Acceptance

it's all perfect acceptance - nothing excluded, indeed, it's the broken, seemingly rejected edges that find their own true belonging in this understanding. There's no argument against this, for our debate too is seamless in its instant inclusion. This recognition brings us directly to our original essence, our relaxed, ever present, state of being. It's a pointer. We immediately relax to what is, our dislikes, fear, impatience, or whatever mood or state the moment holds. This is not a fix, or cure for any sense of unease or stress. It's not an escape from any experience. It's simply, only, seeing how reality has come to embrace what is present right now, without prejudice or design. Perfect acceptance, no effort of our own, the simplicity of what is. Our mind argues - but nothing is rejected. It's all beyond the need to claim this action as our own. We are perfectly accepted, exactly as we are, in the reality of this acceptance.
