The Holiness of Authenticity6/9/2022 My brain is filled with facts
Concepts, ideas, thoughts, Experiences, awareness My brain has been processing For many years After 80, it is bloated, exhausted Information came in From a family And from a troubled world What is true? What is false? What is real, or illusion? The data keeps pouring in From media, people and Direct experience When does the brain get to rest? While sleeping? New data comes from dreams Lies, deceptions and Manipulations from day one How do we develop trust? The world is angry The world is hurting The world is filled with self-hate So we follow our heart And let our brain rest Because it is tired of it all Authentic living is amazing When we no longer care What others think of us And how can they begin To understand The complexity that we are? Gathering the soul pieces And knowing that trust Comes only from the inside It is a miracle that we survive The constant chatter And assumptions, the lies It is a miracle that we survive And maintain our center When some attempt to destroy us Our very essence Is a precious gift Given by God We claim our heart and mind Claim our understandings And claim our freedom As we bask in the holiness Of our authentic self Still intact, still radiating love
