Thought for the day, Thursday 5th January

New Year’s Resolution by Fred Lamotte,

“Don’t go, just arrive.
Rest the mind in the heart.
Dissolve your pronouns in ‘Thou.’
Talk to the animals.
Smile for no reason at 3 A.M.
Instead of asking,
“what have I attained?”
let everything around you
become exceedingly awake,
raindrop, silence, stars.
Discover the secret treasure
in the place where you already are
by not searching.
Breath happens.
Just arrive.”
