Conversations With Life

You need no mouth to speak with life. It’s been smiling within us since the first light,
a nano-tiny ring dancing with a wave of warmth, receiving the blessing of energy’s kiss.

You don’t understand these words because you speak not with life, but a reflection of synthetic creations. What good is billions of years of information, if you choose to listen to the powers of the day, vicious specks of arrogant insignificance, instead of the wisdom within you, the experience of life in spectacular forms under nature’s capricious conditions, telling you all you need to know to find out anything you want to know.

You have no idea what I’m talking about. I know. I’ve been trying for 4000 years. I’ll never succeed and I’ll never stop trying. Am I not a greater fool than the herds of obedient victims rushing—well-dressed—toward the cliffs of eternity? Of course I am.

Were it not for my conversations with life, I’d be ashamed of my foolishness. I wear instead an internal smile and relish the kiss that life lovingly plants on the gratitude of my soul.
