reality checks
some reminders to keep you awake and in check (inspired by the writings of Lao Tzu)
Jul 30, 2024
you are here
here is now
now is all
all is one
one is unity
unity is collective
collective is us
us is me + you + them
me + you + them is everyone
everyone is there
there is everywhere
everywhere is where you are not
you are not everywhere
because you are here
here is now
but not the same now
as earlier
and no longer the same you
you are here
here is now
and after reading this stanza
you will keep going
and you will no longer be here
but there
there is far
tomorrow is soon
keep going
