HOLD WITH LOVE
Hold lightly with love All experience Even that which feels broken There is nothing to fix But everything to hold in openness The key that opens the door To our collective freedom Is not in the battle of opinion But in the kindness of understanding We cannot expect others To put down their weapons Until we put down ours This kind of peace Does not come through transaction But through the willingness To become naked and true To surrender our mental and emotional weapons Is a kind of crucifixion of the ego self Into the unbounded It is the ultimate sacrifice That leads to an unconditional love That holds all of life lightly.
