Two Minds
Every person you ever
meet
has two minds
it's true as a summer
day is long.
First is the mind we
use every day
in our trials and
striving
with dollars,
doughnuts,
fears, gripes, hopes
and day-to-day
struggles.
Then, deep inside each
of us
living in our souls,
reaching out from our
hearts,
is who we really are---
A mind as
understanding, compassionate,
brilliant, wise,
fearless and kind
as anyone who has ever
lived.
It whispers often to
your intuition
and is capable of such
great presence
it can cause miracles
great and small to
happen.
Sometimes,
when you are all alone
with someone talking
and your hearts touch
or when the stakes you
face
are so ultimately dire
they reach clear
through your entire being,
your everyday mind
steps aside
and for awhile, your
second mind awakes
to shine more brightly
than a June sky sun.
