So often,
We listen to the opinions of others,
To the endless chatter of our own minds.
But how often do we give ourselves permission,
To simply be?
In this moment,
Right here,
Can you allow yourself to be,
Free from the opinions of others,
Free from the judgments of your own mind?
No need to judge if you’re doing it right,
No need to ponder how to be.
Simply trust,
That beyond all doubts,
You already know how to be.
You are a human being,
And it is in your nature,
To be.
This moment is yours,
A fresh opportunity to embrace being.
Despite the noise,
The questions,
The doubts,
You can always return to being.
When the mind takes you,
Come back.
When the question arises,
Simply be.
No need to wonder if you’re doing it right,
You already know.
Surrender to this state,
Move away from the thoughts,
The questions of how to be,
Or if you are enough.
Trust that deep within,
You know how to just be,
It is your nature.
Being is precious,
Sacred,
Delicate.
And while it may seem fragile,
Easily disrupted,
It always remains,
Waiting for you to return.
So here,
Now,
Let yourself be.
Feel the depth of being,
Expanding within you.
In this state,
No opinions matter,
No judgments can touch you.
It is pure,
Untouched,
By anything outside of you.
Rest here,
In this state of being.
With every return,
It becomes more familiar,
Less effort,
More peace.
So be now,
Be now some more.
With all that is,
Be now with you.
