Out of Time

Out of Time

a longing to go to the place
that is no-place
and be in time that has no parts
comes over me
i sense a lingering desire for specialness
willingly i bless and release
i sense a tug to compete with others
willingly let go
i sense a slight fear of loss...a desire for gain
willingly combined
into a longing to love as one...
'now' i wait in surety
that grace will fall upon my soul
and lift me up to where
this no-place out of time envelopes all

"There is a borderland of thought that stands between this world and Heaven.
It is not a place, and when you reach it is apart from time. Here is the
meeting place where thoughts are brought together; where conflicting values
meet and all illusions are laid down beside the truth, where they are judged
to be untrue. This borderland is just beyond the gate of Heaven. Here is
every thought made pure and wholly simple. Here is sin denied, and
everything that received instead." (T-26.III.2)
