Experienced Directly

What I write... from
My own experience
Has an aliveness and Truth
That can't be found in the books

Not by copying and memorizing
Quotes and scriptures
Nor from reciting
Stereotypical phrases

My own experience...
Is what's most real to me
Experienced directly
And given only to me

The most real thing,
Honest and Truthful thing
That I have... and trust... enough
To share with this world

How True! Most of us are first class Donkeys..carrying the burden of other people's work stuffed in our minds.I'm glad that there is someone (Like me :)) who rejects these other's experience and choose to spend their lives by their own lived truth.

Thanks.
