Acceptance
Unbounded
Every
once in a while,
I
sit very quietly
trying
to imagine
the
entire world
embodying
the inner peace
I
have grown to
feel
so deeply within myself.
It
is a world of such beauty:
absent
of hate, prejudice and fear.
Every
feeling is celebrated and enjoyed.
The
chains of ego and
materialism
have been smashed
into
utter nonexistence.
To
look upon every face
and
feel a connection of souls
amid
the confusion of our society
can
only be described as love.
A
love of such purity
it
emanates from the soul and
sees
past the physical presence.
I
have been blessed to have such
an
experience.
The
words on this page,
at
best, meagerly relate with the
remotest
accuracy this blessed event
which
has literally reshaped
my
entire existence.
Through
grace,
never
before fully realized,
I
found acceptance unbounded,
without
retraint toward neither
color,
culture nor identity.
I
know to the core of my soul
there
is only one
ultimate
power in the universe,
it
is love.
