We wait... Yet nothing seems to change. Moments pass in lost awareness. And love slips unrecognized through the cracks of our delusions. Still we wait. Until these moments pass us by. And there's nothing left to wait for. |

Sensed pain in this rain of thought to poetry... Life is for living...reaching for stars and catching visions, all shared in the breadth of a dream. TD |

Hi Martie...thank you so much for your kind words! Yes...it is true of human nature. We often wait for what is always present...not seeing what is true and real before us. And yet...as humans we have the ability to awaken to the moment and embrace the ultimate reality of our nature. This is enlightenment...to love fully through what is present in every moment. To wait...for any reason...to love, is to wait falsely and in fear. We only have this moment. (Hahaha...sorry for the soap box!) Love, Eric |

Oh that does it! I needed this wake up call more than I realized. Thank you Ericc, your writing is about as pure and as beautiful as it gets. I also liked reading you on your soap box!! To wait...for any reason...to love, is to wait falsely and in fear. Ok, I'm trying not to cry, suffice to say I enjoyed reading this very much. |

Dear Eric, this is so profound and so wonderfully said. At times my dreams cast me far ahead into the future, at times I dwell in memories of the past, but then true divine love knocks at my heart's door calling me back into this present moment and I know I lack nothing when I share God's breath expanding in His light. I love you. Margherita |

I have been in a similiar situation. I can recall the "wait". So this really touched me and hit home. It was phenomenal to read. |

some sort of sad irony here... Guess sometimes it isn't waiting that we need to do... rather, to take patient action. This is great  Always, Alyssa He was a man of sorrows |
