Christopher Hansard:[ to love]

to love

and to understand love

you need

to love the life you have

regardless of its circumstance

to love

to love the life you have

is the bedrock

of all loving

Christopher Hansard:[ the nature of nature]

the nature of nature

is to express itself

as information

fragments spliced by time,

cooked by space

offered up for its own delight

the nature of nature

is to be

in thought

which is matter

there is

You

Christopher Hansard:[ beauty in all things]

beauty

lives

endlessly

in all

things

seen

unseen

it is

the fragrance of earthly  experience

and yet beauty wiothout meaning

soon turns to

impulsive uglliness

beauty lies entwined in all things

like fragrant smoke in a musical chord

as the impulse to events yet to come

Christopher Hansard:[ the beauty that is in all things]

when you see beauty in all things

whatever it may be

it is the beauty in you

making contact with

the beauty within

the focus of your attention

beauty responds to beauty

truth to truth

darkness tries to cover light

so that light may become brighter

in all things

you are and dwell

regardless of what they are

or perceived to be

Christopher Hansard:[ in dreams]

In dreams

you can see

all the time

that stitches your life

unravel and by that cast a new design

if you catch your dreams on the inward breath

between waking and sleeping

and with a long breath out

you can stitch your life again

sewn by breath dreams and intention

for you are eternal magic in

a mortal urn

living,dying

in dreams.in life

in turning

to return

between the

two

in dreams

you can find

a door

to the place of non-dreaming

of not sleeping

of being and becoming

awake

Christopher Hansard:[ becoming]

Do not try to be

allow yourself

to become

all that is within you

becoming is the path of growth

being ,

the start and the end

the path of becoming

is the path of allowing

in which dwells all good things

Christopher Hansard:[ You]

You

are

what

you

think

if you become attached to the illusory nature

and the identities of thought

You

are what

you feel

if you

cling to the feeling

for feelings are like a hot or cold wind

that shapes and forms

the person who clings

to the feeling that is strong most in experience

thinking and feeling

are essential to our human nature

and should be celebrated

but the question must be asked

Do you truly know what you think or feel?

The answer lies beyond both thinking and feeling

beyond name and naming

beyond giving or receiving

in the you

that is life,

unfettered and true
