Life's Story 9/16/2023

Life’s story
Includes
Unhappiness and sadness
With many questions
Of why we exist
Or who we are
At the core.

A difficult journey
Indeed
With many twists and turns
Until we open our eyes
To the real story
Designed
Before we were born.

So how do we determine
Who we are
Within the story
We perceive?

Tis simple or complicated
Depending on your
State of awareness
And receptivity.

Many triggers
Or emotional events
Are designed to
Open the portal
Of awareness.

One must be willing
To change
In order to breakdown
And release
Old
Beliefs and perceptions
About the story at hand.

In this vulnerable state
At a pinnacle point
Of pain
One realizes
There’s a bigger picture
And a bigger story
To find.

Trust the guiding force
That helps enfold
The real story
We were meant to live
One that includes
Love and happiness
