It's okay not to have New Years resolutions It's okay not to have big goals for your life It's okay not to have plans you want to... Manifest It's okay not to chase your dreams That path is not for everyone Some walk the path of Unbecoming They are traveling the road Backwards Seeking the core What is basic and essential What has been there all along Though we may be headed the same direction Our spirals are mirror opposites Some walk the path of the visionary Creating abundance and Dancing inside a multiplicity of forms And Some walk the path Of the serpent owl Becoming more and more naked Shedding layers of fantasy into the ash Night sky Sitting in the dark And seeing the way the wind moves They do not walk a line or Poise their arrow to the target They sit at the bottom of the ocean And wait Letting the waves devour them They are following the pulse Of listening To silence Like a tiger in the brush Waiting for existence to strike lightening Into the fire of the heart For this kind Nothing less will do Some are opening the palms of their hands And unraveling To become Less and less Until they are No-Thing To become the still point In the center of All You know who you are Keep going - Maya Luna From OMEGA: Feral Secrets of the Deep Feminine Art: Birth of Creation by Tino Rodriguez
