about

The game of ‘who’s right and who’s to blame?’ or ‘where can I get mine?’ are always calling. I want to play the game of finding harmony, of loving what is, of appreciating what I already have. The game of being here, right now; of this life I have being enough. Those other games are so easy! I can find someone or something to blame in a heartbeat. Every chance I get I want to try my hand at turning towards harmony.

This breath is enough. This is enough. Grace. With acceptance comes grace. I lose grace if i don’t extend it to everyone. making exceptions loses me grace.

lyrics

let every breath
be just as itself
I surround the beauty
I am in every you (In every lack of me)
I am in every pain

explore yourself
so that others may
benefit from your universe
benefit from your wounds (benefit from your body)
I hear you coming down the stairs

no we won’t be seperate
no we won’t be tame
no we won’t be divided
if I won’t play that game

the sum of every life spent
from now until the very end
the rush of every moment
our love into the very end

of nothing we are
in the furnace we become
forgive yourself the jealousy
forgive yourself the hurt (forgive yourself of everything)
nothing is what it seems
