Inscribing Eternity
By Stephen Smoke
Life is an endless and perfect process of becoming
A conscious being, beautiful in its infinite individuation, awakening to itself
Gloriously separate, yet inseparable
Startlingly unique, but inextricably linked through space and time and thought
Vibrating in Life’s wave of Light
Rolling over and through us
Shaping worlds
Visible and invisible
Inscribing the face of God in tears of angels
And children
A process that provides both journey and destination in every step
A solution in every puzzle
Eternity in every second
It is a familiar and soothing silence that echoes through fading dreams that ebb and flow
Real
Then unreal
Then real again
An unspoken reminder of all that needs be said
It is a word that lingers on every lip, understood in every tongue
Yet when spoken aloud, it has no meaning
It is the heartbeat of redemption
In every desperate heart
