Invitation

Advertising in train station at Helsinki, Finland.

Invitations
10/1/11

Spoken or not, we are inundated
by opportunities to enter daily relationship
with Life on simple, grand scale,
often taken as demand if unwanted
no matter how it's sneakily disguised
by someone wanting resulting behavioral outcome
when coerced by partner, co-workers, boss,
or society with do, don't, directives
plus advertising looking to hook you
while sex sells clothes, lifestyle, alcohol,
through media churning out mixed messages,
all these coming from exterior sources,
'requests', originating on inside, are different
and can become a sincere prayer
asking for benevolent outcome in future
as intentional, expansively non-specific affirmation,
whether desiring parking space, love, money,
work, health, new openings in arenas
of Existence that have been closed
due to shortsightedness, fear, disbelief, arrogance,
any number of limiting mental constructs
meant for protection, though they strangle
surprising promising potential ably transforming world,
how we see, hear, feel others,
ourselves, every moment minus acquired prejudices,
whenever witnessing disturbance as Soul invitation.
