A moment from God

Have you ever gotten a moment of clarity and you could see through the veil your ego throws up and for just a moment you touched divinity? This is one of those moments for me

Life is a moment
On your breath

Life is a gift
Heaven sent

Life is precious
and multifold

Life is action
and manifold

A beautiful life
Is in our grasp

We can't see it
it goes right past

Life is still
Slow it down

Life will move
With you around

Just be still
For a while

Watch the ants
as they perspire

Leaves will fall
Time will pass

You will know
yourself at last

A beautiful moment
A warm embrace

Breath the moment
Breath the grace

Sitting still in A
Moment of bliss

Thank your life
For all you miss

Author's Note

Quickie phone write. I have these moments where out of the blue I can hear God. I don't mean Gods "talking to me" or I'm speaking in tongues or some bullshit like that. I mean like suddenly everything makes stupid simple sense as if a 4 year old would know it. Like just genuinely love everyone for no good reason. Sometimes I'm amazed how much God can put up with from me and still show up from out of nowhere and make me say, Damn, why do I ignore you most of the time? I'm retarded

I feel like this sometimes...mostly your author's note; like, why have I abandoned my faith? I mean, I know why I abandoned my religion, my Catholicism, but why have I abandoned my faith? This is an incredibly thought provoking piece...one which has made me examine my own core values, and I cannot thank you enough for that.

I am joining a Baptist church. It has changed my life and I'm excited to learn about God the correct way, bible study groups. Awesome. Being with others who believe and live the life, walk the talk. Thanks for listening

My favorite lines are -

"Leaves will fall
Time will pass"

"You will know
yourself at last".

Your soft side has its own little soothing melody that can provide a sense of protection to whomever you choose to protect.

Thank you Tai

So sweet to read your soft side... Life has a way of reaching out to you!..."Hello, it's God here"... sometimes you just need to stop and smell the roses or enjoy the sunshine to be touched by divinity. This is a wonderful write, my friend!

Well thought... a privilege to read.
Zen like in a way. "Yogalistic" and meditative.
A very classy feel to this one, BR.
