God is a Verb

With every fiber of your being you are god. You've known this all along. And you've never had more potential than right now to stand up and introduce yourself to the universe again. I know, I know, "it's silly to talk to a mirror", but's let's have some fun anyway.

You are open and flowing, a bottomless vessel through which life continuously pours through. You have nothing to take and thus everything to give, and you do. And to even try to cling to the love that is given back to you would smother you like an ocean. You are the ocean.

However you do hold the worlds suffering in the palms of your hands. That's your suffering too, and you choose this and embrace it with extended arms. You help others remember who they are. What is this 'other' you would run from anyway? You're quite the joker these days!

You are the change you want to see in the world. You are the grace that reveals compassion. You are the secret that's never been hidden, the fragile buddha waiting to come home.

It's so good to see you again. I've missed you.
