Learning to Be Present

Learning to Be Present

Laura Harrison



Learning to be present,

Learning to be free,

forced to make peace with the unknown, of unfolding destiny


We can only take one step at a time,
     We can only breathe each breath in line

Dreams foreshadow our possibilities,

but if we grasp them we crush their fragile wings.

We have to ride the flow of synchronicities,

and let them blossom into finer things,
   then we ourselves at first conceived.

By balancing relentless risk taking, and that which is received,

Reality is ours for the making,

                    But only if we find dynamic harmony.
