Sometimes it seems
there is so far to go,
so much to learn, so much to purge,
so many constructs to wean myself from
Sometimes I glide along
thinking how close I am
to my arrival, thinking
how far I’ve come,
how comprehensive
my transformation has been thus far
And then I see
how much I’m missing,
how vast the chasm
between my understanding and the truth
Good thing it isn’t up to me!
Good thing my life is held
in beautiful unfolding
where no partial understanding,
no faulty sense of needing to arrive
has any traction.
