Love Changes
Love Changes
...everything.
My time is better spent
walking and relating,
cooking and caring,
humming and sitting,
than in worrying too much
about the fate of this world.
My spiritual rehabilitation
has exposed my buried soul
which then leapt from the depths
and angrily slapped me silly.
My soul demands:
Who are you?
Where are you going?
What are you doing?
You never slow down
and listen to me or to God.
Your superego is just another voice
echoing inside of your head.
Don't remain angry
because you fooled yourself
and can now see others
doing the same thing.
Unleash your madness!
What you don't know
and are afraid to find out
is how love changes you,
and in so doing changes
how you see this world.
That is the real spiritual awakening,
when something emerges from within you
that is deeper than who you thought you were.
So, the person is still there, but one could almost say
that something more powerful shines through the person.
~ Eckhart Tolle
