Get to know---YOU!

 
Quiet Time
 
I actually got to know him pretty well.
 
In those quiet times we spent alone in thought.
A chance to see the very “Truth” of time and space;
to contemplate in unassailed “sales” presentation form
of constant subtle and blatant cajoling and persuading
to come to pre-determined conclusions at another’s behest.
The Independent-Individual free to exercise personal choice.
 
And, in that vacant continuum of silence, I came to know him well.
 
They claim “Money is the root of all evil”.
The true, generally unidentified, seductress is: Power!
A selfish exercise of control over another’s Freedom reigns
as man’s most evil insatiable pernicious egotistical pursuit.
To see such tyranny, visit any politico “in” or “seeking” power.
It is a mental perversion of man to “look down” on any and all subordinates.
 
The Truth exposing such fantasy fallacy is, simply: There are NO elites!
 
So, in some quiet peace of innocent mind declarations, with little, save
time, to count the hours, I converse, in Truth---with…me.
Amazing what one can discern about one’s self in pure
fact absent the distractions of noise in its errant entirety.
 
So? Turn off the phone, T.V., radio and all the rest.
Go alone to a bucolic park setting, find a magnificent
tree offering dappled shade in a cool stirring; watch the
diamond sparkles on ripple lake-waves, try counting them
to gain some patience, relax the eyes to blur the intensity.
 
With deep breaths, clear the mind. Review your blessings;
treasure life and love; redeem your soul with forgiveness.
Smile! Just because it feels so good; it’s easy---and…free!
And, you have myriad reasons to appreciate happiness.
Let go! Let love! Get to know---a special person…You!
 
Contemplate the Greatest gift: Love!
Its charity is in the very giving of it.
 
Had a rough day? Everybody does; you are not special for it.
Remember that song from childhood? From your first love?
Hum it! With enthusiasm! Sing it---aloud! Smile in happiness!
Amen!
