Hi there!

Thank you for your time and attention,

VERSES TOWARD UNDERSTANDING


​That each step I take,
is on the path that I choose,
the one for me to walk.


That each word I speak
is not said in vain.


That this heartbeat
is not wasted.


That today is the opportunity that is given,
and that yesterday and tomorrow
are neither friend nor foe.


To take that chance!
And to be able to give back.


To see that all that is
is meant to be,
and that all is meant
to become better.


That life is not a problem to be solved,
rather the possibility to experience,
to love, to enjoy and to grow.


And if mind and heart
can be content,
all else will be content accordingly.


That death is the seed
from which new life can spring,
so death is truly cause for celebration.


The ones left behind also
get their chance to learn to let go.


So it is that truth is not utopia,
but to thou who is stuck
in the mind of hell,
truth may well seem as impossible.


The ancient mystery
echoes throughout eternity:
how will we choose
to answer it today?
