It’s what makes you respond with kindness,
compassion, openness, and from understanding
rather than with fear and defensiveness.
It heals division.
Shifting our attention away from
the agitated feelings coming and going,
we immediately and effortlessly
relax into this open spaciousness
that’s right there at the heart
of every moment.
This is love,
experienced outside of thought
when the barriers of separation fall away.
