Now and Again
Now and Again
by Aubrey Vora
In a world where
Yesterday is the proof
and tomorrow is the plan,
Today lies quietly,
hidden in plain sight,
patiently awaiting
Awareness.
When the stimulation of information
feeds on the need
for validation, connection and possibility,
the pursuit of potential
becomes unrelenting and unattainable.
Before long...
What was once a grand adventure
becomes a blind grope into the unknown.
The joyful thirst for knowledge is forgotten;
replaced by a pounding intellectual hangover.
And that window to the world
is now a cage.
Or so it seems.
Life, as we know it,
is a series of moments:
Now
And now
And now
Again.
Not unlike a screen
(this one, perhaps):
A single moment
Refreshing so quickly
It appears Real...
Somehow solid yet still free-flowing.
To break the illusion of Absolute
And embrace relative reality,
Be here now.
How?
To see Here,
look around.
To feel Now,
look within.
To fly free
Just be.
And Breathe...
Again
and again
and again,
Now.
