We are all searching for a purpose, a reason to exist here
in this life. We strive for perfection in our relationships and jobs and grasp
on to the tiny hope that these things will last in order to give us the
happiness we so yearn. Most of us are unaware that there is an absolute
certainty and truth that the happiness that we are looking for has always been
inside of us, locked away due to external turbulence and strife made by outside
influences and forces.
Why is it so hard to see the good in others?
Why is it so hard to forgive?
Why is it so hard to accept the things we cannot change?
Why is it so hard to live?
As there are
many dimensions to this world which go unseen to the human eye and takes on
familiar shapes and patterns so are the dimensions of human kind. We all
reflect one another like mirrors verging on different paths. It is not only our
job and purpose but it is our duty to connect with one another: To accept and
try to understand even the most vile and arrogant of mankind, because we are
all one. If you hate and refuse to be part of this world, how will you love
yourself and find the peace and happiness you are looking for?
The winds, sea,
fire and earth even animals all exist and compliment each other regardless of
their flaws. Why then can’t we accept and live with each other in peace and
harmony?
If everyone
could realize that our homes, our jobs, our relationships, all the material
things that we have coveted till our dying breathe is only temporary because we
are all homeless here on this earth. We are here to serve a purpose that is to
serve and aide our neighbor.
I am not perfect, I have made many mistakes and held many
regrets however, the mistakes and regrets I have made has made me the person I
am today. I have not only learned to forgive others but also have learned to forgive myself
and move on.
Every step that I have made has brought me here to connecting with
you all. Every regret has been a needed sacrifice in order to achieve my
purpose. When this journey of life ends and I/we are released to the elements
of time and space; we will be part of the wind sky and sea but most importantly
we will be apart of one another. Even though we age and our bodies take adult
form our minds are not still fully developed and every disappointment every
hurt and pain we all learn from and grow so that we can reach our full
potential of serendipity and peace called unconditional love for all mankind.
