Time for souls, Life and square holes.

Okay so its been a long time since i wrote in here. Don't ask me why because i don't have an answer. sometimes there are words craving to escape beyond my reach. Other times the words are content to live around me and take turns being used each day but without any need to become more.

In those times i see life as the moment before. Its like standing in front of a drum with the entire universe waiting for you to strike the first note. The drum itself is tense with anticipation. You look at the surface and know that once you strike your note... that is it.. you cant take it back. And so you wait. hearing all the wonderful tones it can produce in your mind and letting each one fall around you to absorb into the earth. Which one feels right... which ones will ring just enough.

That's when the challenge hits you, If you slow your world, block out your daily noise. The drum will tell you.... you will hear its favorite note before you play it.

So as is life... listen for the correct note before you play and you will love the song life plays for you. Then once the song starts, don't hold back. Play with all you have and love each note... for each one begs for the next and the next and the next. Soon the universe will begin playing along with you. blending your song in with its own and smiling at you for adding your verse to its song.
