Normal space – what a miracle it is.
Sitting between every cell – the space is.
Floating between every blade of grass it is.
Filling the lungs of every creature,
untouched by the simple flow of a breeze
or massive collision of suns – the space is.
The planets, suns, and comets…
Creation and thoughts –
in all their forms dancing within simple space –
dependent on it – and yet, not touching it.
A fitting analogy –
but as beautiful as space could seem –
the mind would get tired to just looking at it.
Why? Because it is not the content
and the mind is designed for content.
Yet – if you were the space –
how easily the content could be enjoyed.
Rather than fearing the content
or that something would be missing, coming, or going –
the momentary appearances of content are effortlessly allowed to be,
seeing without condition or expectation.
You are not seeing the space –
you are the space –
the space like – presence – awareness.
