peace
it just doesn't seem so possible.
today i feel like the only person capable of a deep meditative peace is me. (capability being notably different from actuality.)
nonetheless, i feel alone in a need for calm and forgiveness. by no means have i found that grail, but i think accepting the need and the task is by far a greater achievement. i want every person to feel a spiritual sense of oneness and satiation. i want every nation to feel part of the brotherhood and sisterhood and motherhood and fatherhood of all nations, of all beings, of all essence. the connection that transcends all separateness - separateness from differences of mind, body, element. the connection that lends itself to peace.

Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace of the infinite peace to you.
