Spirit tells me that
I cannot move beyond
What I am, but, that
I have moved beyond
What I once was, or
Where I once was,
Which is another way of
Saying the same thing.
We are moving forward,
He assures me, when I
Get discouraged and wonder
If I am going anywhere
Along the path of
Enlightenment.
Many grade three students
Want to be in grade five, but
We must accept that we can usually
Only advance one grade
At a time.
Trust me, He asks,
That we will get there,
Wherever there is,
And beyond.
But, for now, we are
Where we are. So,
Let’s enjoy who we are, now.
Living this moment
Brings us
To the next one.
