and within knowledge everything is included;
your name, your identity, everything,
because this has been given to you by others -

and there will be a resurrection of your innocence.
You will become a child again, reborn.

right this moment to pause long enough to truly notice you."

Watchfully alert, joyously unmotivated,
centered, loving, flowing, one walks.

not sitting for anything in particular,
just enjoying how beautiful
just sitting doing nothing is,
how relaxing, how restful.
