Everyone is in search of something; from material wealth to spiritual paths. But it is when we stop searching, that which we seek appears and enriches our life. Does this mean we give up our ambitions completely and forgo our dreams?
Not quite but before we pursue further in search of anything, the first step to take is to know ourselves better. Very often we don’t ever stop to evaluate who we are. We don’t go deeper than the superficial reflection in the mirror. Worse still, we deny what we see in the mirror and project a far more superior and perfect image of ourselves. If we don’t spend time and effort to know ourselves, all our endeavors in life will be pointless because we are always clouded by delusions; when we are not sincere but merely follow the crowd. The easiest thing to do is to imitate. The most difficult is to be original and creative.
It is only when you know yourself, then you know what you want. It is not about wanting something, but understanding and executing the meaning behind it. If you go on a frolic of pretending to be someone else all the time, the meaning will not reveal itself to you, no matter how hard you search and how far you go. For you will only be in darkness.
