Many spend a lifetime
Seeking what always eludes
Looking everywhere for answers
Missing what ultimately endures.
❤️
Creating a prison of our making
And throwing away the key
Chasing what can never be ours
No wonder we are uneasy.
❤️
When finally we reach the day
The one when we awake
We turn from selfish ways
Seeking to give instead of take.
❤️
Life is not about me or you
It is all about Thee
When we finally learn this is
When we become fully
Free.
