You

You

If you knew
the You that is You
is all the You
You will ever be,
always has been,
and always will be:

Would it make a difference?

By “always has been”
I mean
always,
as in there was
no beginning.

By “always will be”
I mean
there will be
no ending.

By “You,”
I mean
the Loving Consciousness
that formed You …

Wait . . .

There was no beginning . . .

That Loving Consciousness –
let’s just call it Love –
forms You.
Now.
There’s no
past tense
when that
wasn’t so.

If that’s true:
Does it make
a difference to
You?

Is there anything
You still need
to be,
anything
You still need
to have,
that isn’t already
You?

Now . . .

Is there something
You want to
create?

Perhaps a
character
You’d like to
play
for awhile?

A dramedy
You’d like to
perform?

A hero You’d
like to
inhabit?

To demonstrate
how far You can
expand
the boundary of
Love?

Go for it.
