“I have searched the spiritual and believed in the spiritual, and I have delved into religion and God. I have sought security, and new relationships. I have run to new gods new experience new worlds,
and still I have not found me.
I have placed my faith in meditation and prayer, and still I have not found me. I have bought crystals by the ton - denying my own power. I have surrendered to my gurus- blindly. I have bought hope for a fortune, and then sold it for twice the price. I have regressed into my past and projected into my future,
and still I have not found me.
I have consulted the clairvoyants - clinging to their every word. I have analysed my mind, and cleansed my aura - built temples of power and temples of magic and temples of imagination.
And still I have not found me.
Then out of sheer frustration, I have locked myself up, and closed myself down, and said to everyone else that I am open. I talk in a more sophisticated manner, yet have forgotten how to communicate my true feelings. I have alienated myself from my family - and real friends are fewer than before. I live in a street of a thousand people - yet know no neighbours. I am a stranger to my own culture, and look upon others with hostility or envy - yet call myself international. I believe I have the power to change the world, yet watch helplessly the news showing war and destruction. I surround myself in comfort, yet cry out to be released from my loneliness while at the same time running away from strangers. I have retreated to God and retreated to Oneness, and proclaimed I have found the Only True Path.
Yet all I see -
whenever I see - is the remains of what once was a human.
Don’t ever forget you are a human being………
