What is on the other side?

Love, surrounding us in all directions Love, in everything we see in everything we touch in everything we feel

It permeates our reality Even if we do not notice it Even if we do not see it or feel it subsume our life

It is there at ever turn It is around every corner Beneath every facade Reflected on every dewdrop

We hide from it We turn around and go the other way unwilling to face it

Our experiences teach us that there is pain that there is disappointment that there is regret

It is better to walk away to turn our heads away to seek something else that is sure not to hurt

We seek joy and happiness and bliss but all we do is compromise we barter our lives away

We must feel safe and we turn away from the ultimate security the ultimate refuge

In our fear we bolt the door we secure our box not letting anything in

We encase our hearts with concrete and steel we build moats to surround our lonely castles

The world is saturated with love but we won’t let it in we won’t acknowledge it we look the other way

Our steel doors are locked our hearts are closed our energy is stopped going neither in nor out

We hide behind our doors waiting for the knocking to stop then we climb down to the basement to cry tears of sadness

Our lives will change when we go upstairs and open the door and welcome the world

When we go outside and surrender to the world we will finally be free

To finally find love we must stop searching we must start seeing it everywhere we look
