Is this you?

Here we are, but where?

It’s my belief that for us to take a step towards raising our standard of living or our level of awareness we are to experience pain and suffering. People in societies dating back to the earliest cultures have been asking the same questions we are today. This is really at no fault of our own, for if we are to be alive, we also must be the ones to figure out how to live and to die.

We’ve become separated from the essence of our truest selves with identity. Perhaps it’s the notion of I am Oliver. Or, other falsehoods. Each idea I buy into makes things easier to live without being alive. A lot of people coast through their life living for tomorrow without ever realizing where they are. People are apt to follow their autopilot, or others start to notice a higher level of curiosity about things around them and decide to do some honest housekeeping and evaluation about why they cannot sleep, or who they see when they look in the mirror.

It is here.
At this moment, when you have a choice.
You always have a choice
until you don’t.
You’ve come all this way only to wander just here?
I think there is more to hear,
Care to share to an ear?
We can sit over here or over there,
Near or far.
No matter the place or the call,
I’m sure of one thing;
We’ll have it all.
