Eight - s e e k
This truth that we live
is more a lie than it is not.
The lies we repeat to ourselves
are closer to the truth than truth itself.
This emptiness
is full.
This wind storm of emotion
is perfectly still.
Excitement is fleeting,
but care not
because the tranquility of joy
is eternal.
The dream that you awoke from
is your life.
And yet
the deepest sleep to be had
finds you with your eyes wide open.
So speak
not words
and love
without feeling.
Discover the non-existant
and the abundance within it.
When you have found the knowledge
you will know that you are lost.
Passing dead buddhas
alongside the road,
you will have found
your path.

Seven - The Moment
I am impatient.
This makes it a challenge for me to live in the moment.
I am always anxious to see what the next moment will bring.
I am nostalgic.
This makes it a challenge for me to live in the moment.
I love to reflect on the sweetness of the past.
I am easily distracted.
This makes it a challenge for me to live in the moment.
The world around me begs for my attention.
I am foolish.
The only moment I ever exist in is this one.
I am foolish to believe otherwise.
