Pearls of Joy

Life is hellish, terror and misery…
Which is hilarious and amazing good fun, 
Actually every moment is a pearl of joy… If! :
You know that deep behind the darkness:
That holds those eyes in that skull
Your actual true, real ultimate being.
The real you?
Is nothing but infinite, boundless, conscious space!
Nothing but the very fabric and structure of reality itself!
Call that wondrous miracle what you will.
But if you don’t know that?...
It’s just hellish terror and misery.
