This is a piece about light coming in one way and exiting another way.
Split.
This was an attempt at giving everyone something full of energy.
At first I thought I had to push the energy through me.
Breathe it in, and push it out.
Then I realized, all I had to do was breathe it in and the rest took care of itself.
That is when I really felt the power.
Just absorbing the light,
Breathing it in and breathing back gratitude.
The light playing abstract pictures on my closed eyelids.
Bliss/Peace/Being
The rest of the string flows exactly where it belongs.
Effortless.
Surrender.
–Julia Claire Wallace
