As a young man
I remember the desire and the need
to BE RIGHT.
The drive to be right drove me in many ways till my mid to late 20s.
Then my passion became to BE BETTER.
I have been pleasantly and at times unpleasantly consumed by the desire to be better.
In the past years I have started a transition to BE PRESENT... In the moments of my life as they pass...
Realizing that to be present I have to sincerely grateful for the now, accepting of the past and undistracted by the future.
To be present, I have to embrace that all there is... Is now.
I have been more mindful of trying to make the moments linger, to BE in them to savor them more.
I still want so very much to better, but being present is starting to guide my mind.
Mindful of this evolution, and aware of it in others...
I wonder if eventually, there will come a time
when
I will simply BE...
unconcerned about right,
undemanding for better,
inherently grateful...
and unleashed
to most
simply
BE...
ME...
Then, I realize and know
with certainty that
ultimately
the highest level of awareness
of happiness
and peace
will be to BE...
FOR OTHERS...
In evolving states of HARMONY,
