The Quiet Place

There’s a quiet place inside me that only I can enter,
with stillness as my key.
through which I enter the awareness that
I am a completely separate being, and utterly alone.

Whether I ignore, resist, or step inside,
This is the home of my every thought, feeling, hope, and fear.
It’s where I define and nurture my limits,
which then shape the contours of my reality.

Avoiding stillness is like hiding the key,
to the birthplace of all my beliefs.
As if hiding a key could ever change
the title on the deed.

The more I embrace stillness and enter this place,
I learn not to believe everything I think, everything I feel,
Or even my hopes, dreams, or greatest fears.
The more I accept my ownership of this place, the more I become aware that I get to choose.

This quiet place is the foundation of my reality
And if what I choose to manifest,
becomes all there is,
It’s up to me to create what counts.
