“The answers are in us.” How many times have we heard that. And yet, it offers us no hope. We continue our search outside. We wonder and walk, and walk, and run. We venture further and further.
Well, think of it this way… The answers are diamond rings, or your cherished possesions. You are looking for them. You think they’re outside, maybe in the garden. Maybe at your friend’s house. Maybe in another country you visited.
Well, they’re in your fucking house. They’ve always been in your house. The minute you realise that. You no longer have to run around with your head cut off. You can relax, breath deeply, and proceed to go about your living. You will find them when you come across them. You may even stumble on them. You may actually take the time off to make a concious effort to look, and may actually find them, or may not.
But have no fear, they’re all around. So take your clothes off, and have fun walking. Take your time. Smile. :)
