A world inside
I close my eyes to be guided to where to go inside for truth.
Guided into all that I can be and wish to be in this world.
The truth inside to where I know myself and life to be as God.
I close my eyes to go inside to know the ways to be in my eyes open.
Open to know the divine in me to experience the divine in you.
This divinity in life is of you and me.
Of you and me divinely honouring our spirits life can be
Communicating my heart and yours truthfully residing in unity
Living to the natural playfulness, curiosity and creativity of life
Expressing my soul and yours as natural states of pleasure.
Humour and playing as a spirit of freedom expressed as life’s joy
Excitement to be all that is my best and worst as embraced and is unfolding.
Excitement to know that I don’t know what my best is. I might perceived to know but left to go beyond into the hands revealed. Be revealed as my soul comes more to play in humankind.
It can be opened this world as undefining myself and yours.
I have know not of my true self and yours as I am been hidden.
Hidden in a definition that is not real.
Defining to know if anything that there is room for me to be me in this world.
Room for All as the essence of oneness is the space towards Eternity lived.
Expressing the unlimited self living is your experiencing of life if opened
Life’s joy and freedom to radiant grace and be of beauty.
As I choose to be in eyes open,
I close my eyes to go inside to know the ways to be in my eyes open.

Hope you have been well and the sun has been shinning in Sydney. Such a beautiful day in Melbourne today. Feel too guilty with being inside. Going to a BBQ soon so that’s great and yum. take care

Very much relate to and respect your words. The world is so fast paced that it is easier to be led by the pace and projected belief of the world. However if we close our eyes even just for a second some sanity seems to find us again. I see that the world in our deepest places is not anything like what is represented materially. If people were to follow your advice and work from the inside out the world would be so less competitive and so much more fulfilling for all.
