Break the Mirror

The purpose of life for eons has been the quest of mankind since Adam and Eve. We ask ourselves when did all life begin and in whom or what we can believe. For some, it seems the answers all arrive along life’s path. They barely need to try. Many find religion while others strive with less ease to understand how or why we’re even living! The answer lies I think deep in the soul. We’re born to learn kindness. Our time in this world is but a blink. So open your eyes; don’t live in blindness. Your essence yearns for all that it can be. Break the mirror; only then you will see. March 9, 2023 for unseeking seeker's Break The Mirror Poetry Contest

On reflection this is steep in the metaphor philosophers has pondered, yet I do have an abiding faith, that in us life describes its reason. Nicely written

Religion should be based on the gospel but I understand there are too many mysteries there. Faith only solves things.

Man has ever been a seeker after truth. Much remains a mystery. But we know for sure that this life is transient and we wait for an afterlife. Unfortunately our sight is blurred. Let us open our eyes and try to see clearly from where comes the light. Profound thoughts Andrea...
