The Goal is the Path

by butterflyzrfree

...and the path is the goal.
The goal is the path
and the path is the goal
the goal is the path
and the path is the now.

Oh Danny boy, as you softly tread above me
I will sleep in peace and wait until you join me

the Joie de Vivre begins...
now!
in all those moments which are now
like now
and now
and now.
have you found it? Danny Boy?
In the spring, when the flowers are blooming?
in summer, when the sheep will be tended, fed,
and sold?
In the fall the flowers will be dying
and if you are in that now
then now is when you will sing
or laugh
or dance
or cry.
It is as it is.
It goes where it goes.
It does what it does.
And in the winter, when all the snows
cover the lands, and DannyBoy's true love
is dead, that is the now.

When I die
I wish for a party
I wish for everyone to gather
and celebrate the joie de vivre
of my new life
the crying baby
of my new
now.

The goal is the path and
the path is the goal
the goal is the path
and the path is the goal
the goal is the path
and the path is the now.

You are there
and exactly where
you are supposed to be
