Sunshiny Day

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all the obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) Sun-Shiny day.

~Johnny Nash

Clump

We already have everything we need. There is no need for self improvement. All these trips we lay on ourselves, the heavy duty fearing that we're bad and hoping that we're good, the identities that we so dearly cling to, the rage, the jealousy, and the addictions of all kinds- never touch our basic wealth.  They are like clouds that temporarily block the sun. But all the time our warmth and brilliance are right here. This is who we really are.  We are one blink of an eye from being fully awake.
