The Pursuit of Enlightenment

Happiness beams, bears new fruits on new trees
It strives to be what you strive to be
But can be disorienting

A piece of the puzzle like no other
Joy is an ingredient, but can smother
Moderation is key, otherwise blunder

Enlightenment is calm, it is space
A common sunrise seen by a thousand faces
Almost boredom, but filled with grace

It is knowing that you are free
To be whoever you want to see
Yet choosing absolute harmony

What do you crave? What do you need?

That is incredibly kind! If I'm humbled any further I fear I will crumble lol. Thank you for being the sun that shines on me.

@cyanessence

What I crave is possibility, because with possibility, comes many doors, just waiting for me to have the strength to push them open 🥰

I love possibility! It is unrealised potential. It is the closed doors you speak of. People you love but haven't yet met. It is words unspoken, truth untold. And I think we are floating in infinite possibility! Possibly.

@cyanessence beautiful poem 💖 I crave only one thing, that my son was still with me💖 otherwise I don't crave or need anything. I already have sooo much more than I could ever need, life is good 💖

I do wish for some things too. In some ways life feels woefully incomplete. There are people I've lost that are never coming back...

In some ways it feels like I have exactly what I need. And I know I am on the same path of my loved ones, and trust we will meet again. In the meantime, I live where they couldn't, hoping they see light through my eyes.

I'm sorry tiny. You've been through more than I can comprehend. You often leave me speechless.
