 i love 

the quiet nights
sitting on a hammock
and reading a book
the words of the mystics
had me by far
so mesmerized
the messages are the same
told different ways
in countless times
hoping that 
it would penetrate
this surface mind
be doers, not hearers
they chant the same line
fine i say
let's rearrange this mind
condition it to the molds
that i would like
for the outer world
to objectify
as within so without
they all philosophized
oh dear child,
leave the world alone
meddling with it
is for the blind
there is
no one to change
but this person
called I
the greatest work
is always done
on the inside
so breathe and relax
as this is part
of the pearl of great price.

I loved the flow and message. I can see you one day sitting on top of a mountain and people coming to you to asking about the secrets of life. Well done poet.

YOU ARE RIGHT. 'CHANGE' COMES FROM INSIDE...THEN IS SHOWN ON THE OUTSIDE. NOW, HOW TO GET THIS CHANGE IS THE QUESTION AND YOU'VE ADDRESSED IT WELL, FOR ONLY 'I AM' CAN DO THIS FOR US. WE ARE UNABLE TO CHANGE OURDELVES. SO, IT BEGINS WHERE 'THE GREATEST WORK' BEYOND ALL HUMAN COMPREHENSION WAS DONE; AT THE CROSS OF JESUS. AND WE WHO FOLLOW 'HIM' ARE JUST 'BY-PRODUCTS' OF 'THIS GREAT WORK'. BY-PRODUCTS, WHO BY 'HIS' MERCY AND GRACE ARE...PRESSING ON! ENJOYED AND THANKS, AUDRINE. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS

There's a lot here to absorb. We all can become better people by studying the mystic lessons given. And you are right about then repeating the same sort of moral and different ways.

But the only way that we can change the evil going on in the world is by action, either directly or indirectly.

I find this to impart wisdom, Audrine. Thank you for sharing your philosophical perspective via your verses. Love, peace, and blessings to you,
