During my dark crucible nights of substance abuse, I was left with no choice but to Accept and fully embrace that fragmented part of me that I have denied, judged and repressed for decades. UNTIL I was able to do that with Awareness (it took several deaths followed by resurrections toward Rebirth).... that which I resisted ... persisted. The gifts are numerous and ineffable ie authentic self love that lead me to compassion. First, toward myself that I can now extend to others. This Awareness without judgement IS true freedom.

... at the break of a sweat
mid stream breaths of fire
the thumping of a s/heArt
Come
flashing visions of sacred moments
of HuMans beComing
ArcAngels and God-desses
A gape suspended in gasp
IS the deafening Silence
of
One-ness with no thing
withIN every thing
IS
effervescent Stillness
of The Presence...
... that other's call
God.

With enough time
... and become
presumptuous
that who what and how
we are...
will remain
just as we experience
them...
unwittingly
inter acting with each other
assuming
that
there will be
time to retrieve
an unkind word
a cruel gesture
or unloving touch.
We begin... with so much
optimism or pessimism
for ourselves and others
only to find out otherwise.
We
spend our energy
on something
thinking IT IS
everything
only to find
out IT IS
nothing.
Experiencing time
IT
has shown us
what we do right
how and why we do wrong
... again and again.
Do we listen
to how we feel?
When our
throats tighten up
tummies go in knots
as our breath staggers
in pseudo-hyperventilation
and everyone around
is dissatisfied.
Can we stop ourselves
from choosing fear
and its offshoots?
... When our addictions
to validation
n victimization
compels n initializes
ALL we do.
Can we
stay still when
predisposed to move
Choose self knowledge
over knowledge of others
Lend a hand
instead of
taking a hand?
Can we
Give breath
rather than
Take breath
just becoz
.. You Feel deeply
just bcoz
Eventually
We
get tired
of fear and its
disappointments
anger, resentments
depression, worry
and separation
from each other
at some point
WE
BE gin
to risk vulnerability
and
attempt
To Love
even
IF
we know nothing
about love
Discovering
that
We are
indeed
Sacred
and part
of Everything
We
Resist and Accept.
NOW
Life
Be gins....

On Sep 22, 2015 Marisa HarNadh wrote on To Have Without Holding, by Marge Piercy:
i loved 'him' for 30 yrs amidst our marriage to someone else, amidst the lovers that came after. Holding the space for him for that long unfolded many layers of unconditionally love. At 50 and securely in my spiritual path and life purpose, another layer of letting go presented itself to me. I thought to myself, why not REALLY re-lease him, with all the love and blessing, I did... maturity and authenticity are now my allies. I will always love him, the having and holding is no longer a hunger. I Am Free.
