all that exists.

why do we love love? why do we love the flow state? why do we love to dissolve and disappear into the book, the craft, the task? because separation is an illusion, as is time. because ultimate reality is unity, oneness. and what love, flow and connection offer is a glimpse into the divine, even as we require this dream, this illusion, to experience the universe experiencing itself.

we separate and then dissolve, disappear and immerse to discover what underpins all that exists. we empty ourselves to remember how we are full. clarity eludes us so that we may remember the truth. when we merge with others, when we stop abandoning ourselves, when the miracle comes and the prayer is answered, we see through the veil of this limited reality and transcend separation. we remember we are whole in a world that profits from urgency, lack and fragmentation.

the path unfolds. the flower blooms. the eagle and phoenix rise. but only in time. our friends leave. our bodies break. storms obscure the sun. the seasons pass. and their transience is somehow what reminds us of the eternal limitless; who we really are, and what lasts forever.
