1 Creation From Me

“Thank You, You” - A poem

Have you ever stopped
and said “Thank you”… to you?
Just think of all the shit
you’ve been through.

You’re the one who defends you
when your mind attacks,
It’s why we have hands
that can pat our own backs.

There’s only one author
writing your book.
It’s the only one that you see
in the mirror, just look.

The only one who will share
your very first breath,
and the very last one
at your moment of death.

I know you can find,
more ways to be kind,
to the one who’s behind,
your body and mind.

Say “Thank you” to you,
for all the shit you’ve been through,
and ‘cause you’re amazing —
It’s time YOU feel that way, too.

1 Quote From Another

The glorious poet and spiritual leader Rumi says this about inward recognition and our divine nature:

“You who seek God apart, apart,
The thing you seek, thou art, thou art;
If you want to see the beloved’s face,
Polish the mirror, gaze into that space.”
