…and this state of peace or bliss fades as we get older and buried in life…but it remains as a distant memory…calling us home. All of life is nothing more than this sense of something missing…a feeling of scarcity that drives fear and has us seeking safety and fulfillment. We desire something more; we are hungry. We look for IT in money, in religion or spirituality, in education, in power, in new experiences, and in entertainment…not having IT drives competition, corruption, violence, and addictions. And we are ever hopeful of winning the lottery, finding true love, being famous, achieving world peace…but IT is not out there…out there can only be suffering and the trying to escape that suffering. IT is right here…but ‘you’ have to leave. bjb
