“Grow up.”
And does not that phrase
give you a jolt –
is it not usually
to admonish one
who is not
“acting your age”,
does it not imply
to be more serious,
to let go of
childish behavior –
to become
an “adult”,
with whatever
connotation
that brings?
And yes,
it is good
to take responsibilities
seriously,
but we wish
to implore you –
grow within.
When you grow within,
do you not
already have
all you need
to experience,
to evolve,
to grow –
there is no need
to “grow up”,
or away
from Who You Are –
do you not wish
to keep playing
with the child
that is You?
Do you not see
the world with
different eyes,
does not the child
within you,
want to dance,
want to play,
to let curiosity lead,
to try something new,
to splash in
the water
just because?
Grow within.
Can you integrate
the parts of you
That Is You?
Is it not the
child within you
that loves to
revel in the
Joy –
does not “growing up”
often frown upon
this gleeful Joy –
yes, take your
child’s hand
and grow within
to see the Light –
All of You
basking in the Love
of All That Is.
Grow within
to meet You –
as you are more
than meets the eye,
you are beyond
what you can see,
it does not matter
where you are,
you exist Everywhere –
as you grow within,
do you not also
grow without?
Put the fun
back in growth.
Feel the Joy
as you experience.
What brings you Joy?
Is not the answer,
simply,
You?
Grow within to see
the Love That You Are.
When you find Joy
do you not also
find You?
Let your child
come out to play.
Grow with Joy.
Grow with Light.
Grow with Love.
