Metamorphosis

I am not who I was, not who I will be,
Yet am I who I am in this fleeting instant?
Who lives right now…and now…
And now? Anyone of worth?
Is the heart awakened to the value of
this life, this day, this moment?
Is the soul impassioned for the breath I just took,
for the breath of others across the room, across the world?
Is the mind engaged in that which has meaning,
which might change the world, change the flow,
change me?

Is this body active to assist the elderly,
the orphaned, the needy, the widowed?
Is it quick to grasp the divine moments,
though they may be subtle,
and jump at the privilege of partnering in the eternal?
Change Oh Heart
Change Oh Soul
Change Oh Mind
Change Oh Body
Change for the better, for the growth, for the life it brings
Change for the world around you
The world beyond you
The world within you
Be transformed, be new
Be different, be you
The new you, the real you, the redeemed you, the God in you
I am not who I was, not who I will be, yet am I who I am in this fleeting instant
