I first heard about this place, this little lump of clay on a message board in space, about a billion stars away. The ad read: ‘Floating garden orb circling a sun. Help us build a heaven here. We need one more volunteer’. So I said that I would come. I was asked when I applied to name some service I could bring. I think service should be joyous, so I said that I would sing. Well, I guess I got the job. And I don’t mean to complain. But it’s not like they described in that little classified that I read before I came. Had I somehow missed a turn? Was this even the right place? Had I fallen for a scam or was it more a fall from grace? Oh, it’s beautiful alright how I love the desert sky. And a quiet mountain lake is enough to make me cry. But I did not come prepared for the density or strife, for the cruel and inhumane injustices and pain that can pass here for a life. So from a very early age, I grew restless here because of this longing to go home, though I could not say where home was. Then in answer to my prayer or more truthfully my scream, my beloved self appeared, come to wake me from this dream. And with a diamond voice declared: “Home is not some distant star, or some heavenly reward that your days are marching toward but the truth of who you are An awareness so immense it holds all of this inside…” As she spoke my mind fell still but my tears would not subside. And from the arms of grace, I knew that all suffering would cease if we could yield to this embrace, if we just trusted in this peace. To even try to find the words can be a sacrilegious thing: So I’d just as soon be silent ….but I said that I would sing.
