χόκουθπόκουθ

.
willing to experience aloneness,
i discover connection everywhere;
turning to face my fear,
i meet the warrior who lives within;
opening to my loss,
i am given unimaginable gifts;
surrendering into emptiness,
i find fullness without end.

each condition i flee from pursues me.
each condition i welcome transforms me
and becomes itself transformed
into its radiant jewel-like essence.
i bow to the one who has made it so,
who has crafted this master game;
to play it is pure delight,
to honor it is true devotion.
