Words; so beautiful

Silence I take in
Words I strain to understand
Love I feel
Freedom from words I flew
Flew up the hills and far into a world filled with wonders
Joyous serenity of love and happiness, light as silk I flew and flew
Stillness, floating like petals of sweet smelling roses
Sweet silence I take in……wisdom becomes I
I becomes I am as I float in oneness and in tranquility
Covered in varied colors of light …I still flew

Words are beautiful and words are amazing especially if we allow them to come from within us, straight from the heart and meant for love and being compassionate. But attaching too much to the simple meaning of words can be quite harmful to us, words are alphabets put together to give a meaning, a meaning that sometimes does not make sense, a meaning that  can hunt, a meaning that can hurt or even destroy us if we allow it to . We can say the same words but get different interpretation, we all see and hear things differently, words are just words and the so called “ugly” words should not have the negative effect we allow them to have on us, they are just words!!!!!
A good friend of mine posted this quote from Eckhart Tolle, in his book -  'A New Earth - Awakening to Your Life's Purpose on her face book page and it does make a lot of sense, here it is:

 «The quicker you are in attaching verbal or mental labels to things, people, or situations, the more shallow and lifeless your reality becomes, and the more deadened you become to reality, the miracle of life that continuously unfolds within and around you. In this way cleverness may be gained, but wisdom is lost, and so are joy, love, creativity and aliveness. They are concealed in the still gap between the perception and the interpretation. Of course we have to use words and thoughts. They have their own beauty; but do we need to become imprisoned in them? 
Words reduce reality to something the human mind can grasp, which isn't very much.»


We really can’t give everything we see or hear a meaning; life is more than that….let us live and allow love ,appreciation ,amazement  and  the wonders of life not to pass us by  , let us not attach words or meaning to the simplest and the most beautiful things we see or hear, let us  relax  in it and allow it to take us  away… let it bring out the life in us , the beauty in us and the love and creativity that is in us….Allow silence and just appreciating whatever you see or hear be the first, just silence and peace ,just watch in awe…… Use words and labels wisely but never get attach to it, they are just words and labels sisters, nothing more; we find ourselves in all sorts of situations and it is to us how we want it to be, if we think or decide it is hurtful then it will bring us a lot of pain and anger  but if we think or decide it is funny then funny it will be, if we do decide to just flow in it and open up to it and let it define itself within us and learn from  it ,the light from that situation will shine itself  and the understanding meant for us will be there at the end. We meet people, things happen for different reasons and opening up to learning from every new adventure in our life (I call meeting people and things happening in my life as adventures…lol… they are adventures when you really  think about it, it is like watching a movie sometimes with all the characters!!!!!…) is beautiful and fulfilling……. Life is too adventurous to waste on labelling, naming and making sense …….let us live ladies.
