Purpose

My purpose is to adore God - in doing this -
 be like a tree, a flower, a blade of grass,
  dew on a petal , the breath of a cougar.

What is God?
  God is nature, being, humans, the earth, the Cosmic Christ.

My purpose is to be present in this play of dynamics -
 to do nothing.

I don't have to do anything
I'm just there.
From being there things progress.
I'm in it  - but out of it

Today what do I do?
I used to think that if I was truly evolving as a human being
I would be a better weight.  Eat the right foods.  And think
good things.

Well, I seem to be at some point now -
I meditate.
I read.  Read a lot. 
Write.
Swim - and drink wine still - and yell at  John when he doesn't remember.

Well, I'm  eating better.

So, maybe I am evolving.

See where I am same time next year.

I don't really need a social purpose.
I don't have to convince anybody of anything
 and I have no great truth.
No great novel or story.

I am just am what I am.
Don't get me wrong I still write -
 but I have been thinking lately of a plan for the coming year-
 and it probably has to do with what I believe.

Swimming gets rid of stress and tones my body.
Pilates gives me strength.
And meditation loosens up my unconscious -
how can there be something in nothing - but there is.

THE END
