a story of thoughts

a small thought of being
'better than'

a seed of disconnection

an innocent perception of being
'better than'

denies one's self - and the other -
of their own unique existance
through comparison

what of co-existing, of one's
distinctness within
all of creation?

not realizing that we can only be
who we are and therefor

can there be comparison? or
only 'difference' and to
accept an inevitable plurality.

...
everything makes sense from everything
...

to transcend duality and dichotomy
which blend diversity into
assimilation

to be one's self is to shine
to reveal a piece of clarity from
deep within

words buoyant from within
one's being
to emerge as light as
one speaks one's truth

to be one's self is the
distinct power of co-being
co-creating
existing
...
'better than'
an obsolete concept when
we become sensitive to the
ways that

I am the only me
and you -
you are the only you

now let's get on with
being

Alive
