Come,
Listen,
Be here now.
Unfold your fears in the safety of your own heart.
Beyond all thoughts and worries,
Distant to the views and opinions of others.
All that's right or wrong,
As you listen within yourself.
Your own knowing of what is.
Sacred truth resides within you.
Come,
Listen,
Be here now.
Listen to the awakening of your own heart and soul.
Feel the rhythm of life beating through your veins.
Hold a beacon of light to all it is that you know.
Your own wisdom through so much.
You have journeyed through uncertainty time and time before and again now.
Remember why you are here and all that you are.
Amongst all the outside noise,
You have and hold your own gentle power.
A fierce passion and desire to lean into each present moment.
And the wisdom of knowing truly how profound this is.
The significance of being here now within this one precious life.
Take it in,
Breathe it all in and feel alive.
Freedom lies in embracing your own rhythm,
Your own way and devotion to this one sacred life.
There is no division,
Nothing is separate.
There is no right or wrong,
But unity.
Communion with all that is one.
Let the external noise that feels too much for you,
Let it be there.
But you don't need to be amongst it or be part of it in any way.
Remember the voices,
But know you don't need to follow or engage or attach.
You haven't come this far to join in the chorus.
As you know so well,
The song you sing through so much.
Your own knowingness and wisdom within.
And how truly meaningful and enriching this is.
It all just is.
Come,
Listen,
Be here now.
You know the beauty in noticing each small precious thing.
In all that is simple but glorious.
Rejoice in simplicity as so much,
So great.
To understand this,
To hold a flame to this beauty and wonder for each present moment is everything through so much.
This deep knowing within and your place within this life.
This is what's profound and significant and this is everything and even more right now.
Your individuality,
Your knowingness of who you are and your communion with life.
Remember why you are here.
All you have travelled through.
You are a seeker.
You are a believer.
You are an activist for peace through quiet reflection and silence.
Come,
Listen,
Be here now.
What is it that calls you?
Notice and become aware and even more so of how life is holding you.
And your deep unwavering trust in this.
Reach your hands out and up and ask for what you truly need.
The peace you have is within your own heart.
All the knowing of this life and your experiences within it.
Come,
Listen,
Be with it all now.
Take a breath into the deepest parts of you that know your sacredness,
Your power,
Your healing that flows from a well within in the depths of stillness and silence.
Trust how this knowing of quietness flows from your entire being around you,
Surrounding you in all that you do.
You don't need to be more or to do anything at all.
Simply be.
Be you.
Be within all that is true for you.
Just as it is.
All just is.
The crowds may gather.
They may beckon you to join,
To raise your voice,
To speak up,
To follow.
Their words may get louder and stronger as you retreat to feel into the soothing,
Harsh and quiet from your own soul that drowns out the noise.
Feel how the song you sing within is all you desire.
All you need to belong.
This harmony within.
The cadence of your own conscious being.
An internal fire and flame.
The reverence of simplicity.
Of quietly,
Simply,
Just being.
As one with presence,
Alive within this life.
You hold a beacon of light to your own truth.
You may not say a word,
But with each breath you take,
You are changing and healing so much.
The gentle yet fierce hush of silence that blows like the breeze or the wind and touches and caresses everything.
Not by standing out or needing to be known,
But as a flowing part of nature.
At one with life.
When you find your own centre amongst the uncertainty or the storm.
When you can dwell within this quiet hush and power of your soul.
And feel how you can be distant but not separate.
This is everything.
Because in your own knowing of self,
You are one with all.
You sing a song within that is connected to every single thing as you know it to be.
All one.
A union.
A communion.
A deep trust and presence with life as it holds you.
And as you embrace yourself with assuredness and certainty and carry yourself with grace.
You are compassion.
You are kindness.
Let the love that you carry and hold within touch the earth,
Rise up to the sky,
Reach out to everyone and to everything.
No one may need to hear about it.
But you are the gentle wind that blows as you sing a song from your soul within that lightly touches and caresses everything.
In the gentle power of your knowingness,
Your truth.
There is no other.
Only one.
Breathe in and out.
And with each breath that flows,
Feel and know how you are love.
You are love.
You are love.
