Need Greater than Wisdom

Is my need greater than the light that guides me

Asking me to restrain

Perhaps even let go

To shed the need for a higher purpose.

What higher purpose may I ask?

Seeing happiness, satisfaction, and gratification from this sense realm

Asking to be loved where possibilities are clearly small

Allowing my strength and energy to be sabotaged by a need that may never come true

Here all is fleeting

Relationships come and go

Values undulate in the convenience of circumstances

Communal sense has eroded for greater individualism

The earth shattered by the winds of greed and greater comfort

Living life in all

Mundane spheres diminish strength

The inner light bows to the need

We are not an island unto ourselves

And desperately we search for the need to find a home

And it does not happen

This is the quandary of many

Much is lost in this process if not seen

Lives are lost

Personal power is usurped by the stronger

And we become slaves to ourselves and others

The cycle comes full circle

To know when it will be met and to know when it won’t be so

And to have the wisdom to let go and turn your evolution to the stars and the Spirit that lives in all of us

The Formless Spirit unknown to many

Yet existing in all of us and across the universe

This turning towards is the antidote

Where Just Knowing takes a vast expanse in the soul and directs you to let go of this process of ever becoming

The Ultimate seat of rest and equipoise
