Music — Breathe Me by Sia

This is the ongoing journal of my personal awakening. Through up to date and un-edited realness, I hope to help you walk through your own awakening with more balance, love and ease.

Why is time so difficult for me to grasp?
It slips through my fingers,
elusive.
At once moving too fast and too slow.
Why is there never enough
time in the day
to finish what I have planned?
And yet,
how can there be anything
but plenty of time?
Infinite time?
Never-ending time?

Time hovers like a puff of smoke —
not solid enough
for me to hold on to.
I reach out
and it dissipates
into a grey cloud.
Why can I not grab on?
Why is time so twisty?
I get sucked down a path
and look up,
to see suddenly without realizing it,
time has disappeared.

I wish I could slow down time at will
so I was never late —
a constant struggle,
and so I always have all the time
in the world
to finish what I set out to do.
I know it’s an illusion,
and yet it’s a convincing one —
at the foundation of our existence.

Help me to see the spaces between
the grains of sand in the hourglass.
To float between them with ease.
