Eternity Is Today





Every new day is a source of mystery

In which the past, present and future are one.

It is like a river in which each drop of water

Is linked to its tiny spring on a distant mountain slope,

As well as one of our world’s far away blue oceans.


In just the same way this today of ours is part of Eternity,

Every precious moment of every day that’s where we dwell.

Eternity is not something to be waited for until leaving the physical plane.

Knowing this demands that we live in a manner that is worthy of it,

So when reaching the other side we can look back on ourselves with gladness.


Emptying our hearts and souls of the concerns

Of our lower nature, like vengefulness, hatred and greed,

Raises our consciousness into the desires of our Highest Self.

Our whole being fills with kindness, compassion and love for all life.

Now, at long last we are worthy of Eternity.
