Growth
One can build.
Growing is different.
It is the essence of the essence
of the essence of meditation
whether or not on a cushion.
It may seem like something at the outskirts.
It is the pearl at the center.
It may seem like a path upon which you travel.
It is the path that is always you.
Is it empty?
Is it full?
Is it inspiration?
Is it God?
Is it You?
You are and you become.
There is no comparison.
One can build a house.
Growing is different.
One can build a career.
Growing is different.
Always different
yet always the same.
