Bring a Book - The Night's Light

The race
Is so exciting

Preparing for it
Training for it

Starting the race
Pushing yourself to the limit

Finishing the race
And the best sleep after the race

But what happens
The day after the race

A feeling of let down
A feeling of not knowing what to do

The accomplishment is over
The next race is not yet there to do

Stop racing in life
Sit down and read a book

Listen to the book of the Universe
Read when you silence your mind

Listen
Hear every word spoken to you

Pick up a book
Listen to the words from above

Calm your mind
Let go of the race in life

The race to perfection
The race to award winning security

In all the preparing and training for life
The living life opportunities pass you by

Stop
Grab a book and find a tree

Sit with your words
Listen to the words you hear within you

Teaching
Is an important thing in life

Teaching
Projects the Teachings forward

Teaching
Gives you the opportunity to give

Teaching
Is for all who long to live

There is no race when teaching
There is no finish line when teaching

You teach
To pass the gift that was given to you

There are no rules
Except to keep the Teachings pure

There are no opinions
There are no judgements

Teach
Everything that is pure

Teach
Everything that allows the student to see

To see the Light within them
To see the Light within others

All you have to do
Is begin

All the races that you crossed the start line
All the races that you crossed the finish line

Start giving to others
The start line is right at your feet

One step
And you have begun

The beginning will have been won
The finish line is limitless

Every time you teach
The Teachings are given

Giving is the gift of life
Others receiving is the finish line
