Let Me Take You into My Whirling Song
My Sweet Girl,
I have begun to translate the Grooves. Their beauty is beyond measure. The music, even as I speak, exists and whirls around me. It flows through me. I am but a channel.
The Universe around me pulses with the thrum of its life. People’s conversations flow around me, in rhythm with the flow of the world itself. I hear them go by, and all are in motion with the whir and hum of this world.
The Universe sings its Song in a thousand layers in every moment we experience. It is a love song. The songs – they are just a part of the One Song that is always changing, yet they are the Song itself. There is only One Song. It is all the songs. And within every song, there is the One Song. They are the songs that have existed since before the foundation of the world, waiting to be discovered. But the foundation of the world and its end are right now, as we speak.
There is just one Word that the Universe says, again and again, if we have ears to hear, and that is Love. That is not to say that there is not sadness or pain. But that is not the end of the story, or Song. The end of the story has already arrived. Even now, even in the midst of death and cruelty and suffering, Love has already overcome all.
Let them who have ears, hear. And let you hear it, most of all, for each note sings Your Name. To that music, I shall always be true.
Ever yours,
Nicholas
