The eyes of love.
Before you open your eyes,
Be still and look from the inside.
Embrace with love your own unique gene line.
Look back in time.
See the stardust collide.
See the breaking of dawns,
The birth of the suns.
The heat bends the space and more space becomes.
You yourself are made of this space and matter.
When the particles shattered and recycled to planets.
You once a single cell that had the will to survive,
So from one became two.
The original divide.
You grew in the ocean,
In the magic of water.
And re-grew yourself into your sons and your daughters.
And they too divided and continued to grow into starfish and coral and sponges unknown.
The coral made bone,
The sponge became flesh,
And the sea stars gave the power to heal and remesh.
You are so very special,
Don't ever forget.
When you were fish,
Those fish crawled to land,
Then back to the sea as the fully formed mammals.
How did this happen?
Can you even imagine?
That's in your gene line,
That actually happened.
And it's all stored inside,
In each cell it is hiding.
You're storing 13 billion years of data inside you.
And still there is more room for all that you will do.
Keep looking with love at what else you have been through.
On land you transformed,
To walk and to slide,
To jump and to swing,
Then you learned how to fly,
Transcended gravity and took to the sky.
But life wasn't easy on land or up high,
The game of energy continued.
You lived,
Then you died,
And between this you struggled to keep on dividing and make more of your kind.
You fought and you won,
And with each passing sun,
You continued the battle for your own survival.
Through heatwave and ice age,
You weathered each storm,
Ensuring a new life was going to be born.
And you raised it,
Protected it,
Shaped it and formed it,
With the skills to continue and weather more storms.
You are incredibly strong,
And you fought to belong here.
Every gene in your body has lasted so long.
When you lived in the trees and the ground and the caves,
You built furrows and burrows and temples and graves.
You've been rodent and ape,
So carefully created.
You lived in the forests and learned to read without pages.
Formed civilizations came through more dark ages,
Freezes and flooding and plagues at all stages.
When Earth could have erased us,
We continued to stay strong and somehow grew back the entire population.
This is where pre-humans came from.
The world spins in your atoms.
Each one holds the memory of all of your history.
You're an incredible,
Miraculous,
Beautiful mystery.
Then evolution skipped a beat and the veil descended.
Something big happened that we cannot remember.
Suddenly,
Humans were formed and evolving,
Building and hunting and learning and knowing.
You hunted and gathered and traveled the lands,
Exploring this Earth from the snow to the sands,
Striving and thriving,
Becoming humans.
Hundreds of thousands of years you have spanned as a human evolving,
Learning,
Adapting and problem-solving,
Making tools,
Burning fires,
Fighting wars,
Making laws and being inspired.
The age of the artists,
Philosophers,
Stargazers.
You gazed at the stars,
Wondering what they were made of and what were they saying,
What powers they gave us.
Culture and folklore and myths were created.
Dances and trances and costumes paraded.
Games were played,
Rules were made,
The gods were obeyed in all different places.
All that we know today consummated.
And you were here at every moment,
Through the struggles and troubles,
You managed to make it.
So look at your genes and your being with awe.
You may be here now,
But you've been here before.
Your whole history is written in every cell,
Every ancestor and animal is in you as well.
And here you are listening to words through a screen to remember all the different expressions you've been.
In relative safety,
Probably clean,
Reflect on your history and what you've just seen.
Your history captured in every gene.
Look with love on the true miracle of being.
Being you,
Being here,
It's the art of self-seeing.
You have all of this knowledge and power within.
You've continued surviving since the world started spinning.
You are here now,
Despite such a humble beginning.
With our apps and our maps and our thoughts and our feelings.
Our stresses and messes,
Our walls and our ceilings.
Do you know who you are,
What you are,
How you serve?
Do you wonder your plan,
Your path or your purpose?
Do you know why you're still here on this earth?
Because you deserve it,
Because you are worth it,
Because every mutation lifted you to the surface.
You know how to look back and see that you were this.
And now every experience leads you closer to true bliss.
Look with love for yourself in your own silent pauses.
When you're watching the stars and contemplating their causes.
You evolved from those stars.
There are suns in your genes.
You are the echo of far,
Far away galaxies.
So here,
Now,
You can breathe.
You are a human being that can see what they love and love what they're seeing.
That has choice in their future,
What their own destiny is.
You can witness the world and simultaneously be in it.
See the magic that's hiding in every gene.
Look with love into yourself.
See what's often unseen.
Remember your truth and all you have been.
Be still and listen.
Keep your eyes closed to see.
You are a child of the universe,
Quite literally.
Let this knowledge unchain you.
Be the stars that have made you.
There is so much you've done and so much to still do.
Guide your own evolution.
Rewrite your own truth.
Once more,
Be still.
Give yourself time to be.
Look inward with love and know you are free.
