Life flows by
a river springing
from the creative instant
of the present -
the event horizon of time.
The fullest, richest experience
of life - where we feel alive -
where we find meaning,
is there in the river.
Always there, waiting for us
to engage fully - to peel off
the layers of fear and complacency
that keep us in the shallows -
observing only the surface of the mystery
with no comprehension of what
lies within -
no true experience of it.
Not really living at all.
Yet the river flows by -
as does the time of our life.
How sad to reach
the end of our opportunity for life
without immersing in it,
aware, awake, alive
to the experience.
Dive deep.
