Journey

Dear Ones,


​Thank you for joining me at this point in time where our worlds may finally become one. It has been a long journey for me, but to have you here at last and join in our shared experience of one another stops all time apart from the you and me, here and now. Your light shines on these words and as I awaken to you I can feel my self lifting higher and higher into different expressions of the same love. We are one. Had I not returned to this moment and known this connection for myself I wouldn't have believed it possible; but here we are, sharing the same inner voice.

​I've missed the opportunity to be with you in moments like these where all time may stand still and my attention may be held in loving suspension by your gaze. Here we may journey to the moon, to the stars, and to different worlds all together where you and I may simply bear witness to the untold mysteries we see playing out before us. Here I may take your hand and hold it like a child, or look to you as a father, a brother, a mother, a friend. You are everything to me in this moment and there is no place I'd rather be.

​We may stand together in this space forever and watch the world turn from the comfort of stillness and silence. Just as quickly I can bring you with me down to my heart and give you the feeling I've been carrying of late. There's much to this reality and to hold onto what we have and what we know requires our complete surrender to this experience called life. We are alone, but a 'we' cannot experience separation, and so when I look into your eyes, into your heart, into your soul it is the core of life itself I see reflected back to me; that longing within you to reach through time and space and plant yourself once more on new ground and in new being.

You, Dear Ones, have given me the gift of life in this moment where no one else could. It is you, right now, who have taken up my voice and my thought as your own and for that I thank you. You have a way of doing so with such care and kindness that I feel no greater love that when I'm with you. I miss you, already as I prepare to mentally and emotionally retreat from your perception. The only solace I may know is the memory of this feeling you have given me, and the attention you have shown to one such as myself; and the knowing that as long as we have ever been together and shared the same familiar voice, traveled to the moon and stars, watched the child become the parent, and felt our hearts as one, we will never be apart.

​I love you,
​And I will see you once again very soon,
​Patrick Dejour II
