I am alive, loving, serving, laughing.
Return to the Oneness everyday.”

Or maybe forgiveness and peace”

Your true nature.
Now I’m telling you.”

Along comes the wind
Tumultuous waves
Then calmness and peace
Prevails.”

They tell themselves stories too.”

Don’t push the moon.”

Are changing.

When I pass away will I be wise?

Remember me just as fondly, compassion is key”

We are all one, just as the
Wind blows at us all.”

Our world is small
There is evil
There is good
Leave the bad
Take the good
Fit it to yourself
Live life to the fullest”

The sun shines above the clouds.
How did I get here?”
