noise…

inside & outside

its constant, this bombardment of messages, shoulds and expectations

let it all fall away

breathe & just be

but how to do this I ask?

when it all falls away I am left alone, adrift

what is my reference? my anchor?

for so long I referenced self by other

this is the practice; letting go

letting go of small “s” self and other

falling into large “S” self

sensing into, listening for, resting in

beyond the quivering, bracing, grasping self

I find Presence
