Claim the Process

How often have you started to talk,
responding to someone else
and discovered a foreign entity,
an unknown wisdom, sounding
in your voice? That’s what it’s about,
listening to others, mentoring,
sponsoring, being a friend.
When you don’t know where
the words began the journey
but they got there through your mouth
you ought to listen because chances are
you’re talking to you as much as to
the one you’re responding to.
Claim the process.
The answers will come.
Let go of yesterday and tomorrow
and do your part, the next right step,
and the answer will come, the right one,
when the focus is on service,
on yielding, on surrender,
on today’s path.
