Connections


 


When we are “soul searching”


Looking to find ourselves


We are also looking for a connection


Any bond that tells us we are not alone


For in finding ways in which we belong


We find ways to be a component


Of the bigger picture, the larger plan for man


And we realize that we can play a part


In a grandiose scheme to fix more than just us


To make better the space we take up

Paradoxically we find ourselves when we're not looking, but nurturing our souls now, no future or past but just living and longing for the divine...

You are so right, all too often we get wrapped up in our own little worlds we do tend to forget we can move outside our circles and reach out for the greater good.

Isn't it funny how we always seem having to have a reason for our existence. Instead of just being.
Nice thoughts!
Love,
