Is there one time specific in the illusion of time so sacred above all others?
Sacredness is the stillness and presence in the moment
And in the knowing of the blessing that is being bestowed
How many moments slip away
Because we don’t immerse ourselves in what IS
I held my newborn child to my breast and rested in unconditional love
Moments of such love cannot be erased by a clock ticking
They stand on their own, separate from time, separate from space
A rainbow of colors merging into the whiteness of infinitude
I am thankful for each moment in which I’m truly present
J. Schlenker

Being fully present is the secret to life, I think!

“Moments of such love cannot be erased by a clock ticking
They stand on their own, separate from time, separate from space”
There are memories we would always cherish and people we would always keep. Thank you for this piece as it also reminded me of two mothers who gave unconditional love to me.
Happy 2011 and happy rally!
