We are here to share

We are here to share
To help
To be of service
To each other
To pull each other up
When one is down
To lift each other up
When one’s spirit
Needs lifting
To honour each other
When the time is right
To praise each other
When the time is right
To support each other
Always
In times of good
And times of bad
But sometimes
We get so caught up in self
That we neglect to see
How interconnected we really are
Truly are
We neglect to remember
We are 
Of the One Source
Of the Divine Spirit
Emanating from the same soul
So instead we become
Selfish
Self centered
Hoarders
So afraid 
Of tomorrow
That we forget 
To live today
We store
We hide
We lie
We cheat
Keeping us mired in the darkness
In the dungeons of doom
Busyness distracting us
From being who we are
And what we are meant to be
We look up
Through the iron grates
The iron bars
Up high
So high from where we sit
Mired in darkness
And see those on the mountaintop
Claiming all the light
And then we wonder
And lament
About
How they got to the light
When we are still struggling
On the treadmill
And no matter how hard 
We push
And stride
We remain stationary
Standing still
Not moving
As life 
And they
Pass us by
Breathless
Resentful
Angry
Until we stop
And look
At ourselves
And see
It is because
We have put self first
Ahead of helping
Instead of supporting
Instead of present moment living
Instead of being grateful for
All that we have
All that we are
All that we have experienced
Stopping us from seeing
We are just as capable
Just as fortunate
As those on the mountaintop
But we are stopping ourselves
From getting there
Because we refuse to share
Refuse to help
Refuse to promote
And assist
Unless it serves us
Keeping us down in the dungeons
Chained to the rock
Until we shift
Our thinking
To one of abundance
And gratitude
We see the climb 
Was never
Too steep
The grates
The bars
Had no key
That they were
Self imposed
By us
By our own
Limitations
Realizing all at once
The only thing stopping us
Was us
Not being thankful
For every experience
In our lives
Not being grateful
For every person that crossed our path
Not seeing that
We are evolving
As we imagine
Because
We are products 
Of our imagination
More so than our circumstances
Because
It is our imaginations
That create our circumstances
And if we don’t like our circumstances
We have to either 
Move away
Change
Or accept them
100%
As they are
Because we are the masters
Of our destinies
Dreamers
Of our dreams
And that’s why
There are those people
Who could be us
High up on the mountaintop
Basking in the light
Not because
They are selfish
Or self-centered
But
Because they recognize
They are the light
As are we
Because we are all
Of the Universal Soul
Of the One source
Here to share
Not hoard
Here to teach
Not to block
Here to learn
Not stagnate
Here to prosper
Not starve
Here to grow
Not wilt
Here to explore
Not hide
Here to live
While we can
Not wither
And
Be exactly
Who we came here to be
Sharing
Loving
Supporting
Spiritual beings
Having
A human experience
At the same time
In the same dimension
Of the One Source
Of the Divine Spirit
Of the Universal heart beat
Namaste
