Making A Point 4/6/2024

What’s it all about?
One might say
When looking
At the blue sky
And the moon
Far away. 

So much natural beauty
Exists outside
And all around
The block
But how do we find
Beauty in our heart? 

 For that’s the key
To living in a state
Of being
Without any hardships
Or struggles. 

The heart knows
The truth
In any situation
By
Feeling and listening
To the experience
At hand. 

It always knows
Which way the wind blows
Tis the direction
One must head towards
For meaning and purpose
In the quest of life. 

Be fluid like water
But also steady and strong
As its current
Knows when to bend
And be flexible
But also
When to not.  

That’s how one lives
Mindfully
Making a point
To be
Compassionate
And loving
No matter what.
