What we need aren’t more jobs or more things.

What we need is more joy. More love. A better experience of life.

 

The sense of being awake. Alive.

The experience of laughter. Of life, old and new.

In harmony with all action and inaction.

In love with every creature, every rock and stone.

 

Lifting our hearts to something greater. Something bigger.

Believing in everything and anything.

Things that never existed before.

Words and ideas that never existed before.

Lives that never existed before.

 

More knowledge of all that is infinite.

Greater awareness of all we have been and will be.

 

What I create in my mind shall be brought forth unto me.

Think and you shall become.

Ask and you shall receive.

Amy, on first reading this, Emily Dickinson came into my head ! ( it is a small Irish head )

but that soon faded . . . your words and ideas are a refreshing addition

to this site, keep it up.  william.
