Resting in the lap of Oversoul,
I am able to clearly see how
the transforming of my attitude
transforms the world.

No longer frightened by shadows.
Able to see the futility of arguing
with, or cursing at echoes.

There is only this place
Only this moment

Resting in the lap of Oversoul

There can be no crisis,
only opportunity.

Opportunity to bend and grow,
adjusting to the winds of change.

Detaching from problems,
solutions are discovered.

Blessed phenomenon
that grants me the chance
to realize a deeper place of rest.

I no longer stand
before an obstacle
and ask,"Why me ?"
nor do I pray
that the obstacle
be removed.

Blessed obstacles,
that allow me the opportunity
to kneel and rest.

A place to create
an altar for praise.

Give thanks
for the blessing
of being able to realize
a deeper place of rest

Heaven is not my goal
Heaven is not my place

My place is deep
in the bosom
of Oversoul

Resting in
the lap of Oversoul,
I can clearly hear
my heart beat.

Then you are surely "there."   Enjoy the rest of your journey.
