Thoughts

Have you ever stopped and wondered in the midst of the going,
where you are coming from and where you are going to?
Are you so caught up in the next to do,
that you forget who you are and who you want to be?
Society's screaming, faster... faster...
the more you have to do, the more you are fulfilled.
How did we ever get caught up in the lie,
that life is about having the busiest schedule?
What ever happened to the moments,
of a child sitting in quiet awe of the world around?
Wake up, open your eyes,
cause all you're seeing is the world blurring by
Slow down, take a look,
for all you're doing is running from the loneliness inside.
Rest, be silent,
go against the urge and understand yourself.
For the truth of understanding cannot be found
In the midst of the going.
Only in quiet will you ever hear,
the whisper of wholeness.
