Never A Threat

Never a threat:

it’s the potentiality of the page, that its promise is held by the very emptiness I seek to fill, and that in truth is my own reflection shown to me. A blank page is never a threat to creativity, — and to see myself within the vastness of its promise is to be inspired by all the possibilities that emptiness can be, and indeed, what it is right now within this very moment. This is the proof of my capacity being an endless source of inspiration, and that the world itself arises from the same void that shows the promise of this page.

the Buddhist Heart Sutra states that emptiness is form and that form itself is only emptiness, one thing in trade with itself for the sake of inspiration, constant, and never ending in its creation. Thus we have the solid reality of the world and still emptiness is ever present.

emptiness is never a threat to creativity.

only the promise of its fulfillment.

and so to see myself reflected back from an empty page is to finally come to my capacity to hold all that’s beautiful and frightening of the world, every aspect my own truth given back to me and healed and cherished through this acceptance.

it’s to find myself whole.

complete.

emptiness and form.
