Bright Space -- Work

Bright Space

Work

by Dane Allred

As we work side by side

Trying to get back to that Bright Space

We all shared

We organize ourselves to do our best

We try to experience all there is

So when we go back we will know all there is to know.

I circle in my sphere

Completing my tasks

And you complete yours

While circling in your sphere

And sometimes our paths cross

When we meet in this way we find we are doing the same work

Working in our own way

But accomplishing the same thing.

We recognize that Brightness for a moment

And remember that we must remember all of this

So when we are together again

We can share all that we have learned.

You must do those things you are to do.

I have my list as well.

But unknown to us is how our works

Will complement each other

When all is done that must be done.

You and I will have many stories to share

And we will remember the time our spheres connected

For a moment

And we recalled the Bright Space

That Bright Space we left to be here on our own

When all we had ever known was being together.

We came here to find out what we could never know together

And will return to share

And again we will be all there ever was, ever is, or ever will be.

Pay attention to those moments when our worlds coalesce

Remember that Bright Place which still connects us.

And then we will go our separate ways again.

You work in your place

I work in mine

But the work is important

It all works together even though it seems random

It might seem unimportant

It is the most important thing we can do.

Though there seems no order in what we do

Though chaos seems to dominate all we see

Our plan to find out all we ever could

Brings us closer to being together in that Bright Space again.
