There Is A Moon In The Sky

There is a moon in the sky outside my window. It hangs there like God's eye and I want to see it better. I want to meditate on it, observe it, focus all my attention upon it. But there are so many false lights to distract me. The candles on either side of me, the screen of my computer, the light above my garage door, the street light, all are there taking my attention away from the moon.

I block them out, one by one. I close the shade on one side, blow out the candles, move so I can't see the garage light and still there is the glow from the street light. Slowly it dawns on me that these are not necessarily false lights. They are simply man made lights. They still illuminate the world before me.

Everything I need to know is within, but I cannot always see that. I need more lessons. I need hands on experience to learn some things. The universe and all that is in it are here to teach me. My job is not to close my eyes, not to blow out the candles, or close the shades. My job is to become the window, allow it all to flow through me and listen to the song that is left behind.

I'll write down what I hear, send it to you. You do the same for me.
