​                  THE UNIVERSAL PULSE
                   AND
                   THE COLOR OF SOUND
​

Regardless of
the color of our skin
the color of our hair
the color of our eyes

or how we choose to define ourselves
culturally,
dogmatically,
economically,
ethnically,  
politically,
sexually,
socially,
or
spiritually

we each share the longest one pointed
meditation we have ever EXPERIENCED

9 months
270 days
6,480 hours
within the resonance of our mothers womb
​
before our feet ever touch
MOTHER EARTH

But as we continue living
we become entrenched within the
rhythms we have created for ourselves

the rhythms of family
the rhythms of learning
the rhythms of play
the rhythms of social media
the rhythms of work
the rhythms of worship

These rhythms relentlessly run across our lives
in and around this underlying pulse
at the same time
all the time

and while we continue to make time for
each of the above
we rarely make a time for ourselves
to be with ourselves
and to realign ourselves with this universal pulse
which continues to fade 

and when we allow that to happen
we lose not only a little bit of ourselves
but also an awareness and understanding
about each other
as human beings to each other 
as the immediate past and the impending future
become all important
and now disappears

but NOW only happens NOW

with(in) every millisecond
with(in) every moment

and when it stops
we are left with(in) the
RESONANCE of our MEMORIES

and the SILENCE that was there before it began
and the SILENCE that resumes after it stops

may we continue to strive to live our lives with

INTENTION
why we do what we do

INTEGRITY
how we do what we do

INTENSITY
how often we do what we do

PASSION

and
BALANCE
probably the most difficult to maintain

and realign ourselves with the wonder of beingness
AS WE ARE EACH  INDIGENOUS TO THIS PLANET  

ART
LIFE
AND
LIVING
are only as separate when we allow them to be.................
