‘A Place of Neutrality’

There is peaceful place from where to look at things,

from where perspective is neutral.

This place is neither the yin nor the yang,

neither the black nor the white,

neither the plus nor the minus.

It is a place of neutrality,

not a place of nothingness…

after all are we nothing or everything?

Even that question is asked from a place of duality,

A place of nothing or everything?

Let’s find that place,

the place of peaceful neutrality,

and let’s look out at everything in our world

from just that place.

Walid recently rediscovered his passion for writing when he came across some poems which he had written more than 20 years ago.

Walid receives inspiration when spending time in nature and when reading or listening to authors like Alan Watts, Carl Gustav Jung, Fritjof Capra, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Gregg Braden, Bruce Lipton, Jim Rohn, Brian Tracy, Wayne Dyer, Denis Waitley and Anthony Robbins.

He also finds that he unveils deep insights and reflections when writing speeches that he delivers at his local Toastmasters’ public speaking club.

Rumi said, “there is a voice that doesn’t use words… listen”. When we spend time in nature, and when we read and write about subjects we resonate with, we begin to hear the whispers of our inner voice.
