" THE DIVINE WORLD " MY PHOTO!

Image may contain: plant, flower, nature and outdoor

All his life Around the world traveled. He: Walked on arid lands and fertile valleys, Crossed endless deserts and climbed precipitous mountains, Sailed over rough seas and turbulent oceans For A sign of the divine to find-so as to be able God to embrace But He found none! Disappointed by his fruitfulness efforts - gave up trying. He sat down: To relax To think To ponder To Meditate It was the first time he abandoned logic and asked for help, Thus He closed his inquiring mortal eyes for a while It was then -in the silence of those moments, In that time of unconditional abandonment of the self, That something called him from within: "Here I am, Here I was and Here I will forever be for as long as you live For How could I ever leave my creation without guidance? Without this inner light that only those who come to me by Their own will can hear and see?" Dazzled, opened his soul's eyes for the first time And behold- there it was: The world all his life was looking for to find The divine world That Only the enlightened ones could witness! © Demetrios Trifiatis 03 October 2018 Copyright © Demetrios Trifiatis | Year Posted 2018 03 October 2018

That was a beautiful story that you've penned; do you meditate? This is something like one would find in meditation. Beautifully done.

Do I meditate? There were many years that I did meditate for hours a day, now I am in a permanent meditative state and I do pray! Thank you dearest MLK!

- No matter how heavy and black life looks, it's about not giving up hope that things can get better - Sometimes everything is so black that there's almost no difference between life and death - it's important to listen to it's own heart - It's not a cliché that one can find "the divine world" - A wonderful story, my friend :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
