I am everything.
I am nothing.
How do I balance
This tension?
I am everything.
All of me
Participates in life.
The gift of creation…
Manifestation of the Divine
I am nothing.
My place in the Universe
So insignificant.
Here one moment
Not the next.
My passing causing
Scarcely a ripple.
Yet I do what I must…
Reach
Care
Connect
Gratitude for the Gift
Earnestness in the Living
Humility in the face
Of the Awesome
The Balance ever Shifting.
