Quest

Life treads on...

relentless in its quest...

memories are made...

many remembered and many forgotten...

a few encrusted in stone and left as footprints through the ages..

for seekers to find

and reveal the journey of the human kind

or the marvel of the human mind...

Have we evolved or are we rediscovering...

going in circles in our kind...

just searching and uncovering more mysteries than ever...

when we find an answer to our quest...

does that open more than one mysterious door..

leading us on...through the maze...

only to find ourselves where we began...

but not so ignorant anymore ...

more wiser every time...

we go through the beaten trail

or a least trodden path...

we see the path in varied light each time...

suddenly it dawns...

and lo behold the quest begins

for the source of that light...

seeking balance ...as we drive the car or ride a bike or go through life's blind turns and even eventless paths ...all we need to do to stay the course is maintain balance. Neither lean right or left...just stay centered. But that's the tough part. Especially when it comes to emotional balance. Life's goal is the pursuit of many down the ages- peace,joy, bliss, happiness, weaath, health and so on....but all that come and go...well change is the one true happening thing....but when you can balance your mind and keep that spirit level centered you will feel right and confident. Things will happen, people and situations will change...perspective will change and emotions will rage - but as soon as you are tilting left or right towards a fall you will have to gather yourself and put yourself back to the center. That's balance . The yin and yang principle of the orient and the zero concept and also the 12th chapter of the Gita talk about this balance alone.

stay the course. you are your best friend and worst enemy. your mind is with you or pulling you down. center and balance the mind and your thoughts will fall in line. Just like riding or driving it takes a lot of practie and you will get better at it. keep working at that and one day you will drive the course of life with ease and balance.
