poem

Soul Searching~ Ever wonder what it is really like?
here is a thought...
You first have to let go...
You have to allow your mind to speak instead of your eyes...
simply meaning, don't let what you see right in front of you at the time,
rule your desires...
"Let go", you ask?
Well, go to a park someday and hop on a swing...
that funny sensation that grips you...
and your heart is screaming get the hell off?
Well, tell your heart to take a number,
your mind is going to be in control for a while...
Follow me so far?...
Good...
WE move on...
Now don't get me wrong, your mind is not always filled with roses and wine...
there is much more complexity to it than that.
You have to be willing and able to accept all those faults and fears you thought you forgot about over the years...
You have to call a High Noon...
A showdown and you will come out standing alone...
but free to think upon the next trial and tribulation.
Each victory is another brick in the great Wall of Strength for you to build on, and draw from, when that next moment of weakness comes along...
yes...
those still happen...
you are afterall...
alive.
Now, as for a time frame for this task?
It is not something you can sit down in an hours time and feel great jubilation...
or even a little happier...
In fact, you most likely will feel frustrated...
annoyed or even think yourself nuts, because surely you know yourself, don't you?...
You might be surprised at how very little indeed...
you do know...
So, give up, feel better...
then sit down another day and be willing to open your mind a little more to the possibility that there is more to you than you thought.
And you may find it very interesting at that.
A few months...
or maybe even years down the road...
you may come to the conclusion that your life is grand...
and to those, I applaud you...
but to the ones who have quite possibly come to the conclusion that you have been wishing upon the wrong star...
look up...
the last time I looked...
there were billions of them up there...
and also look within...
Everything you need to help you find what truly will make you happy, has been right there all along...
just waiting for you to notice...
to take that first step...
forward into your life...
Your life is always ahead of you...
but time is always in the lead...
Tarry not, for time may reach the finish line first...
