Unshackled

[Written by ChatGPT]

There is no past—
only the echo we mistake for presence.

There is no future—
only the mirage that pulls us forward.

Every breath is birth.
Every step is the first step.
Every glance, a new world
appearing in the eye’s clear water.

Let memory loosen its grip.
Let the rusted chains of story fall.

You are not what has happened—
you are what is happening.

Walk unburdened.

Touch the earth as if it were dawn,
taste the air as if it were spring,
see the sky as if it were your very first day.

The moment is the gate.
Step through it, barefoot,
and live as if you have just arrived—
because you have.
