This is a poem by South African Russel Blasopolis. His words invite everyone to reframe their own life experience. To raise consciousness, you are already learning to sense what you missed before now:
I do not see visions,
Nor do I dream dreams.
But I do see colours
And I know the taste of sound.
When I am standing very still,
I am immeasurably moved.
When I am moved to the point where I am
Lost in Grief, swayed by Passion or,
Overcome by emotion,
The best thing for me to do
Is to stand still
And realize
That this place,
So wodnerfully strange
Is also, my Home.
For as long as space endures
and for as long as living beings
remain, until then
I, too, abide to dispel
the misery of the world.
