Finding Free

by Jen on August 1, 2009

This poem by Jennifer Paine Westwood is a good refresher when feeling confused or burdened. Sometimes when we just let go and fall into the openness, we find more love and support. Peace!

Unconditional

Willing to experience aloneness,
I discover connection everywhere;
I meet the warrior who lives within;
Opening to my loss,
I gain the embrace of the universe;
Surrendering into emptiness,
I find fullness without end.
Each condition I flee from pursues me,
Each condition I welcome transforms me
And becomes itself transformed
Into its radian jewel-like essence.
