We wait for clarity and motivation,
and follow the inner drift
of the soul's delight.
As time goes by,
I find myself thinking of "soul"
(and "heart")
as "Right Brain,"
and thinking of "ego"
as "Left Brain."
The duality of Right Brain/Left Brain
provides the foundation and clarity
of our life's work:
Establishing the balance and harmony
between the two hemispheres of our brain
which is exemplified
in the quality and flow of our life.
We live to unify the opposites,
unite the polarities,
reconcile the disparities
and bring the two together,
aligned and in accord
with the here and now of our living.
How we do that is through
the conscious awareness of what's what
and what needs to be done in response to it
in each situation as it arises,
dancing with the music of the moment,
bringing order out of chaos
and Yes out of No
through all of the circumstances of our days.
What is called for?
How can we meet that
with the gifts of our original nature
and innate virtuosities?
Take the questions into the silence
and see what comes to mind.
