It is an art,
A great skill that can be developed
Because it is natural way
Forgotten in the great distraction
Lost in the froth of the waves of doingness
But there it is
The art of being with
Being with what?
Being with all that is
With discomfort, our own and others,
With sorrow, with grief, with anger
With brokenness and heartbreak
With suffering and desolation
Being with feeling judged and measured
With being crucified
Being with the world as it confounds
Challenges, enrages us or lets us down
This noble art requires only
The totality of our presence
And the profound silence of our stillness
An ability to remain in being
And the cessation of all emotional charge
If there is any true art to be practiced
This is it, for it brings great healing
To all it touches.
