Radical Surrendering

Second Sight “Sometimes, you need the ocean light, and colors you've never seen before painted through an evening sky. Sometimes you need your God

  to be a simple invitation,
      not a telling word of wisdom.

Sometimes you need only the first shyness

  that comes from being shown things
      far beyond your understanding,

so that you can fly and become free

  by being still and by being still here.

And then there are times you need to be

  brought to ground by touch
      and touch alone.

To know those arms around you

  and to make your home in the world.
      just by being wanted.

To see those eyes looking back at you,

  as eyes should see you at last,

seeing you, as you always wanted to be seen,

  seeing you, as you yourself
      had always wanted to see the world."

David Whyte
