Thoughts in The Dark

Thoughts in the dark

I love the night, it inspires me deeply and touches a cord in me that sings of ancient wisdom and mysteries beyond the reach of human knowing..
When I was researching the bible I found reference to Gods word being hidden in the stars.. The three wise men were astronomers you know.. Before biblical times the most ancient of civilizations on this planet studied the stars and watched the night sky to learn and to find understanding..
We are taught that somehow darkness is to be shunned that there is something wrong with darkness, when it is half of everything in the world.. With out the darkness of the night we could not see the brilliance of the light..

But tonight I sit here in the stillness and I ponder this world and all that is going on in it.. I see upset, and struggle and fear from the farthest corners of our planet to right here in my own home... It appears to be no different anywhere right now. But if I have learned anything at all, I have learned that appearances are very, very deceiving.. We only see what we focus on and we only receive perception from the angle we are looking from.. So, as I was very tempted to join in the fear something very quietly spoke to my heart... Nothing is as it seems, remember it's all just a dream....
This is all just a piece of a much larger picture that is bringing us to a place of new thought and new conscienceness that is older than life as we know it.. This is all just a thought and then reactions to those thoughts.. So my choice becomes what will my actions be? Will I react to all that I see, or can I somehow just change my point of view and let the rest be? Maybe if I just step this way or that I'll be able to see from a different perspective what's really what with all of this and that. What if I stay quiet and react not at all, oh to be able to be that on the ball.. Its all in how I look at it, its all in what I see. So in the end what will my choice be?

With out the darkness we would not understand light. So I think we need both, neither wrong, neither right.. The dark and the light make a whole day complete, with out the night when would we sleep..
When the world is asleep there is peace, deep, deep peace.. Like right now, my whole day has been filled with anger and fear, but now all that is sleeping so a deeper voice I can hear... That still quiet voice that tells me there is nothing to fear, nothing at all, just come here, just come here.... Come into the quiet and be wrapped in the night, and let all the thoughts of what's wrong and what's right, slip away, slip away, don't hold them, don't let them stay. Rest in this quiet so you can be ready for yet another day..

No matter what happens, whatever dreams may came, there is still nothing but love once its all said and done. Trust in that love, trust in that day, when all love comes round, it will stay, it will stay.. There is nothing to fear, not even fear itself, there is only love everything else is just a dream, its really not at all what it seems... Let your heart be lightened with just this one thought, fear, anger and frustration only work when they're bought.. So tonight I"m not buying, nope at least not tonight.. For now I'll buy love, and in love my heart takes flight, Only peace, oh and joy, and that's what feels right... For my heart anyhow I'll look from that angle, from loves point of view that my heart can handle.. There is no fear in love, and love knows no fear.. That's what I'm hearing from that still small voice, it's speaking so clear.. Be not afraid to love, and simply be not afraid, let my love cast all other feelings away..

May the peace I find in this night not stray from my sight with the days first light. So I thank the darkness for the quiet it brings, so I can my hear my true heart as it sings, Bless the night, bless the night as to my heart it brings light, the light of love, and for me, that IS what's right...
