Finaly Opened My Eyes

Once i have found The Meaning of life I travel to get there Struggling along the way Seeing blindly no mirages Fleeing from lonleyness Starving for attention Scared Broken Confused I am Frightened for remorse Finding what i came for That is the meaning The meaning to excist Happy Extatic Blown away at the results Of my findings Freedom at last No more suffering Mind strait Head strong I found peacefullness I found life

The only way to understand life is to live it, that is a problem something we don't want to do sometimes, but there is a place of the power to do so within each of us, if we will only learn how to draw from it. Thanks for sharing! jm
