When you want nothing
and expect nothing
of your self or others,
you may find your self
in a strange place
in which you are unsure
of what to do or how to act.
Nothing
may seem appealing,
save for sliding deeper
into this seeming
state of nothing
in which you find
your self.
Your self may seemingly
have no purpose in this place,
and so it may constantly
remind you of this.
But soul knows
that self ALWAYS
has a purpose
or else self
wouldn’t be here
within these potentials
in which you
place your awareness.
Soul does not worry
for soul realizes
the purpose to self’s angst.
Even if self doesn’t.
Feeling angst, of course,
is part of the purpose of self.
Soul appreciates
the angst that self feels,
even if self does not.
But soul is not entirely heartless.
Soul lets self know,
however vaguely,
that self is on the right track,
not that self could ever be
on the WRONG track.
And so self
accepts and appreciates
this seemingly nothing
state of being,
knowing that
this, too shall pass,
and there are
many unknowns
to be experienced
which could not be
accessed through
the previous program.
Self is getting an upgrade,
even though the progress bar
is only part way finished.
Above all, self trusts
that the new operating system
will be worth the wait,
and even if it isn’t,
the experience is unavoidable.
Self knows
that this is precisely
as self should be,
a plaything of soul,
who self if also.
We are Space Monkey.
