I’m lost in the dark.
Where’s my list? What’s the priority? How do I accomplish that? I have plans, some divinely inspired, but can I complete it in time?
Time is short.
Happy? Healthy? Successful? Human.
A tangent. What was the mistake? Was there a mistake?
Reality. Reality? Wake up!
No, not the illusion. A loss of control. The key to awakening? A softening; a lightness. Less resistance. Less baggage to slow me down.
Surrender to it? Where is joy? Within.
My journey through the woods, full of beauty and richness.
But it’s dark. And I’m lost.
Beginning to Understand 
Life is short. But what is life really but a series of events and happenings that keep us going. Can we control their direction?? Sometimes but sometimes the direction we try to get to just doesn’t come. Its the unknown & it is that unknown & element of surprise that keeps us out of the dark. As soon as we think we are in control something happens to bring us back to the facts & that fact is we only have partial control & the rest is up to life,, life happens to us!! Is it dark? Sometimes.. is it a rainbow? Sometimes… is it a bright star? Sometimes…. & yes is it hell? Sometimes..but that is life & we are all put here for some reason to endure it!
Life is short!
A series of events that keep us going.
Do we control them? No ! We can try but they just keep happening..
Are they dark? Sometimes..
Are they a rainbow? Sometimes…
Are the beautiful? Sometimes..
Are they hell? Sometimes..
But they keep happening & will keep happening and we will go on…
Life happens to us!! We like to think we are in control & have it all figured out but is that possible?
So the darkness will come & go..all we have to do is realize that we are put here for some unknown reason to endure it.
Life is short. Too short to be lost in the dark. I say, let the darkness, as with all other things, come and go to remind me that I am human. Let those events remind me to keep my priorities, my aims, at the forefront of my awareness and daily decisions. As with all things, this too shall pass… And another event will be there to quickly replace it.
Do I think it’s possible to to have it all figured out and be in control of everything that surrounds me? No. Do I think that I will ever stop trying to have it all figured out and be in control of everything that surrounds me? No. If I did stop, there would only be distractions there to replace it.
