I am the bridge

I am the bridge

A Poem by J.Nico

The little and the small are details not all minds are ready to instantly recognize as not so small signs of what just really happened in the moment, weeks or months before, or still to happen in some near, or not so near future. It takes a special attentiveness of the spirit to fully grasp the implication of all that goes on one layer of two beneath this social entanglement we live in. The conscious mind is fully aware of all these aspects and more still; yet, it’s the unconscious one that rules in most cases due some unguided education. Only when this surface mask of the mind itself cracks, we glimpse what actually is underneath. But not all that see, willingly accept. And of those that do, not all go far.

The fundamental difference is in really living this vision. Some of us are equipped with the tools to do that, even having been born into a mind clamping society. We cling to things and things cling to us and we allow it to be from a tender age, it becomes a nature within our mind, and we get so immersed in this group concept that the individual literally gets drowned out of existence. But being equipped with, is not the same than using these tools.

It takes a special kind of mind to take this step, one in witch the needed prerequisites are in place, so all it takes is the activation of the awareness. I’ve learned that what can do that is an extreme of some sort. Not necessarily in the lower end of pain. Apart from a shunting of society all together. In either case, the path is always one’s own.
