Diminish
The word keeps popping up,
in books,
in conversations,
in songs and commercials,
beckoning to be noticed, begging to be acknowledged
& so,
I do what I always do when this sort of wonderment appears,
& yep.
That’s what I figured you’d say, Google.
so, yeah,
um, hey,
Diminish ?
uh-huh
It’s you.
Yep.
Today, I am talking to YOU.
I’m curious as to why you do what you do ?
You weaken.
You minify.
You squish and you squelch
& I just need to know why ??
I mean, does it make you feel more alive inside to take what isn’t yours and demean ?
Is that it ?
A power thing ?
Or is it a something you’re lacking ?
A genuine factor that simply does not exist in your innermost self.
hmmm.
I just don’t get it.
But I sure wish you’d help me understand, because the way I see it,
you and I are wandering souls,
placed upon this awesome planet, in a spectacularly gargantuan universe.
We are teeny, tiny, itsy, bitsy beings
& if that’s not enough to convince you of our totally beautiful sameness ???
WoW
just wow.
Want to know a secret, my belittling friend ?
I feel sorry for you.
I do.
Because you have no idea of the joy you are missing in this treasure called, Life.
It’s everywhere and everything, available to anyone and everyone
& it is right here,
RIGHT HERE
to be enjoyed and experienced
& how you cannot realize the absolute simplicity of it all is completely beyond me.
But.
Here’s a thought, Diminish.
How’s about you concentrate on YOU and I will pinpoint ME.
We can tidy up our own within-s and focus on our own awareness.
Because when you stop lessening me and begin the building of you ?
Amazing will follow.
Guaranteed.
🙂
