Why We Are Here
I am A joyous star in the universe's span,
A twinkle in the Milky Way's grand plan,
A fleeting second, God's timeless chore,
In creation's symphony, forevermore.
I am everything, I am naught,
In varied moments, life is wrought,
In every shade, in every rhyme,
I am all, nearly all the time.
In Christianity's embrace,
I stand, A vessel crafted by God's hand.
To love and serve, His will to heed,
In every act, His grace I need.
Buddhism's wisdom calls my name,
To free myself from suffering's claim.
Through compassion's lens,
I strive to see,
The interconnectedness of all that be.
Hinduism's cycles, birth to rebirth,
A journey through this earthly turf.
To learn and grow, release ego's bind,
And unite with the Divine, mind to mind.
Philosophy's realm, a treasure trove,
Sages and thinkers in dialogue.
Existential quests and queries wide,
I seek the meaning deep inside.
From varied paths, I glean and glean,
In search of purpose yet unseen.
In unity, I find the key to see,
To why I'm here, and who I'm meant to be.
Perhaps we're here to learn and grow,
To find compassion's radiant flow,
To bridge the gaps, to heal the pain,
And kindle love like gentle rain.
Or maybe we're here to explore the unknown,
To claim the truths waiting to be shown,
To marvel at science, art, and lore,
Unravel mysteries, open doors.
In every breath, in every sigh,
Beneath the canvas of the sky,
We'll find our purpose, like morning's light,
In the beauty of being, shining bright.
