Here I am
not there in the past:
neither basking in success
nor bemoaning failure
Here, now
longing, attending,
waiting, listening
~~~
Here I am
not there, in the future:
neither hoping the best
nor fearing the worst
Here, now
trusting, surrendering,
receiving, being
~~~
Here I am
not there distant:
neither lagging behind
nor running ahead.
Here, now
Repenting, aligning,
changing, clinging.
~~~
