What if I told you that I don't care about
the various external masks you wear to cover up
your deepest bleeding wounds from a broken heart
or to highlight your highest pleasures and joys in life.
What if I told you that I can love you without any wraps
in your most plain and vulnerable state of genuine humanness
devoid of any gowns.
What if I told you that Truth and Freedom is found
when you are not afraid to fully reveal yourself
physically and spiritually naked with whatever you've got:
being it sweet or sour, beautiful or awful...
Would you believe me if I told you that
I can embrace who you are as per your own uniqueness just for
showing up and having the courage to partake in this glowing dance?
What if I told you that I don't care about any of your deceitful acts
that I only care about your ability to expose your essence in full length;
including your greatest accomplishments and all the sour aspects of your darkest side.
What if I told you that I don't respect your attempt for apparent roughness
that I only care for your ability to cry, to laugh, to smile, to love,
to express whatever happens to be dwelling at the root of your very heart
and to fully be who YOU are.
What if I told you that I don't care about all your past mistakes or your misbehavior
that I don't mind if you were a thief or a victim of your own lies
as long as whatever you've gone through in your experiential journey
has somehow brought you somewhat closer to a larger inner awareness of you
as an integral part of this human and spiritual ocean of love
and as long as you can feel whole in the interactive presence
of something which transcends your own individual and separate self.
What if I told you that all I care about is if you can dance to the beat of the earth
and keep up with the pace of the sudden twists and turns of this ever spiraling journey
and to freely and naturally flow with the rhythm of the tides
and the unexpected. ups and downs and the arbitrary crashing events or
the overwhelmingly surprising joys and smiles of this running river of breaths and sighs.
What if I told you that nothing really matters if you can feel, be and shine
from deep within in full congruence and loyalty to your own essence
in deep communion with the love binding it all together as one.
What if I told you that you are enough as you are
and that giving and receiving unconditionally of whatever you have inside
is suffice to make me dance in joy for admitting that which cannot be denied.
What if I told you that the art of be-ing just as you are
is like falling in love with life all over again in each new breath
and that this can grant you eternal peace, harmony and inner joy
in spite of the weather and moods of your present day,
in spite of all the lightening and the storms attesting the alignment to your soul.
What if I told you that as you become and blend in a globally-joint journey with all that is;
and as you swim upstream evolving in this dynamically intertwined amalgamation
of spirits, passion and great love you become completely whole.
What if I told you that I don't care about your
age, race, color, cultural, social or financial background or
about any of the attributes that might in any sense, shape or form
separate YOU from ME and US from it ALL.
What if I told you that the entire boundless and fenceless planet is our home
that the sky is our shared universal ceiling
that the soil is our common floor,
that all the existing beings form our family
and that I love you just as you are:
would you then still be able to stand there and receive this flowing current of golden light
without offering any resistence, without tightening all up, without escaping,
without pretending, changing or covering your very intrinsic essence all up?
What If I told you that all we need to do is nothing
but just to allow ourselves to be as we are,
to let go of the urge to step in and assume control,
to get out of the way so that we can leave plenty of room
for the magical miracles and gifts of life to surprise us as we move along
and to let love lead the ride as we dive into this ocean of peace and calmness
and float in and out of the illusions and bounce back and forth from the mirrors
reflecting in all directions the illuminating blazing light.
What if I told you that this maze of colors and
and that this puzzle of places, people, feelings, experiences and emotions
all form part of this ongoing dream called life.
What if I told you just look within and dissolve in the now
and in there you'll find yourself and you'll find me and all that is
in front of the intuitive and divine eye.
