Life became a sure approach to God,
Existence a divine experiment;
The world a conception and a birth,
Of Spirit in Matter, into living forms.
Nature bore the Immortal in her womb,
That she might climb through him to eternal life.

When you live to the rhythm of poetry, you become it.

Authentic in its present decisions
Infinitely flexible and spontaneous
Energetic by nature
Only truly as it is in this very moment
Already free

Be like the river. Flow.

What is the difference between looking backward and looking forward. They are the same. You have made yourself a prisoner of time.
