When I remember,
When I remember why I came here,
When I remember I once made a choice.
See,
I was not always this worm,
Those thoughts,
This body,
This human.
My soul once had a choice and it decided,
I decided.
I decided to come here and now.
And yet so many times in this life I have forgotten and I keep forgetting.
I forget the language of my soul,
My gifts,
My intrinsic desire of embracing life,
My inexplicable ability to love.
I forget.
I forget it all.
I feel lost.
And then,
This is when it happens,
The calling.
When the little voice gets louder and louder,
Summoning me to remember.
And becomes so loved,
So intolerable,
I can feel it deep in my body.
With no place to hide,
I am left with no choice but to surrender.
At first noticing the breath,
The movement.
Then my body begins to move freely,
Instinctively,
Fiercely,
Softly.
And in that precise moment everything changes,
Everything is suspended.
Each cell,
Every cell is now dissolving in a breath.
And life as I know it stops.
The time,
The gravity,
The doubts,
The thoughts.
Nothing exists,
Everything exists.
This is when I remember.
I remember why I came here.
I remember I once made a choice.
