Fulfilling the real Wish … (02/25/12)
“The right word may be effective, but no word was ever as effective as a rightly timed pause.” ~ Mark Twain
We look for intimacy for ourselves, & yet remain alone …
We look for pleasure for ourselves, & yet remain in pain …
We look for satisfaction for ourselves, & yet remain in yearning.
Maybe we are looking for the wrong things in the right places,
& maybe we are looking for the right things in the wrong places …
… & maybe, just maybe, we are looking for the right things in the right places
— yet FOR the wrong people.
(…..pause…..)
Instead of making wishes for our own Happiness, maybe today we can wish for others’ Happiness …
Maybe we can wish to become the change we wish to see …
Maybe — just maybe — we can choose to set those wishes in motion …
… and Become the LOVE We Truly ARE.
