A Holy Reflection of Love
I see human kindness everywhere I look,
and I see human darkness everywhere I look.
However, I don't seek to see only kindness.
I seek to be kind to myself - strengthening the skills of presence and resilience, of attention and concentration - so that I might respond to the fundamental needs of this body and system and be loyal to the whole.
This intention returns what I need (to be seen and heard) and reflects it in Kind - "I see you and I hear you".
I don't seek to see only darkness.
However, I do seek to ease into the dark places in ways that are dignified and faithful - humble and honest - those that allow the Light of Grace (unobstructed by judgment and identity) to Right the values that are shared, confiding in the eternal.
This action follows and allows what I am to shine through (Self Love) and reflects it in Kind.
In turn, this kindness becomes my world - awakens through the words I speak and the efforts I make (and the beliefs they intend to benefit) - calls others that speak my Kind near - becomes a bond of kinship (Kingship) and inherent goodness that meets me in the future without condition.
This is mercy.
... compassion, forgiveness, and atonement actioned from the ground of our truest, deepest nature, in the service of Love.
Singing joyfully, "Come! Rest in the halo of our legacy!"
Rest not as a goal that lies somewhere in the future,
but as an expansion of the intention to be whole with whatever is here right now –
to see and hear the good, the bad, the beautiful, and the ugly – to be Holy - to stop searching in the future for proof and to stop pillaging through the past for clues – to allow all to confluence and merge with Source and Resource
which lead to the WellSpring of Love,
... this day when I AM the kindness that I seek.
