Welcome to the isness

A lot of the time we feel stuck in the past, the future and the physical. Like me, as I sat here. Untaken paths, possible paths and physical paths distract us from the real path, which is simply being. Temporally, this can feel like being and becoming, but there is really no becoming, just becoming aware of what is.
And it's really easy, unavoidable even, to start becoming aware of the isness, because the isness has marked itself out in contrasts, in order to be seen and felt, and yet the parts are all, of course, parts of the whole.
But now, and here's the clever part, you are part of the isness too, you are not separate from it, even as you observe it; observer, observed and the process of observation are really three in one, a glorious trinity. And this is the isness.
