With Love from Tasman – A poem to Inspire and Renew

To be

To be or not to be, is not the most important question

What to be is, and its answer, is of your selection

For it captures the essence of the who of you, for all to see

And gives life to every experience, your lived reality

Selected from the lesser, being the familiar, fear, ease or hurt

Sets you on the lower path, keeping you bonded to the soil, and grounded in the dirt

Selecting from the higher, is a choice for you, as well

Being capable of love, lifts you above the turmoil, of your own private hell

You are an individualised aspect of Source, the one and only Me

Made manifest to explore the self, you are the You, in Me

With the power to choose what that will be, in every moment, from now, to eternity

You are both the question and the answer, the what is, and what will be

The current and the future, the You, that is Me

Be it loving, or be it hateful or whatever you choose to be

In that moment, that is what reality will be for thee

So, dear one, choose carefully, what you want to be

For your reality will follow that, most assuredly

Time is but a string of moments, the “now” that provides the space

To choose how you greet that moment, either with a smile, or a frown, set upon your face

For we are one, we are one, we two

Life has just one ultimate reality “Being Me” requires “Being You”

And so, it is

Message to the Reader

Take what resonates and leave the rest

Share with those that deserve the best
