When you feel like you want to disappear
What you really want is to arrive and appear
In a way that is totally you
You with all of yourself and facades few
You try to get away from it all
You though keep hearing a call
To show up this place and that
Coats and scarves and maybe a hat
You reach for things that cover best
Now that your presence is put to test
Ya ya I know it is the season and weather
But you see how glad you seem altogether
It is rather amusing to me
When I hide myself to deter
And then see how many check or bother
It shows my innate desire
To show up with all my fire
But just want to disappear
Because I am not sure if it does matter
Infinite Living 
Deep, thought provoking.. wanting to disappear..but appear in fire

Very emotional and true. Heart say disappear, but then mind say, no. Or, maybe the soul’s soft voice calming us to stay and, that it matters. You matters. Small. But YOU matters.

it is enough that it matters for you, actually if it matters for you it will matter for the others – they are just a mirror 🙂

Knowing yet allowing the space for doubt. …that is a wonderful reflection!! Thank you very much!!
This is what I have been talking to you about …all the knowing sometimes takes time to trickle down to our human level …suspending us in doubt and judgment…

Reblogged this on Infinite Living and commented:
I have deep gratitude for the word press community and the magical interactions & web of connections we weave in our Universe. I am taking a break for about 2 weeks as I recognize the need for simply Being without the every day Doing, to retreat to my own space. to renew & refresh by staying offline to most extent possible on all platforms. I am choosing to reblog this following poem as I enjoyed going back to the mindset I had in December last year, and seeing how far I have come. I can say I am happy with myself 🙂 Wish you all a glorious wonderful holiday season into the New Year!

It’s a very good piece PD… and very reflective to see where you are a year later. We should all do this… Enjoy your break. We’ll miss you and look forward to when you come back in the New Year refreshed. Have a happy holiday season. Forrest 🙂
