Purpose

Purpose

So many times people ask
Why am I here, what’s the task
Who’s in charge has control
Created this, made my soul

If there’s caring, so much love
From a Creator up above
Why have sadness, hurt, and pain
Why not just love, what’s to gain

So much human frailty
Makes it so hard to see
Faith and trust in knowing
We’re in His garden growing

Things that feed and nurture
Not always what we wish they were
As children we don’t always see
Our needs for our eternity

Through the joy and pain
Great wisdom ours to gain
Enriching for our soul
As we learn and we grow

Greatness we will reach
Through the joy and strife
These lessons that will teach
Bring meaning to our life

When the sunshine comes around
And we hear a joyful sound
In His presence we will be
Crying out, sweet victory

The time will come at last
Leaving the pain in the past
All that remains from before
Lessons leading to the door

When the leaves are falling
And our Father is calling
No fear of the season
Knowing a greater reason

When the cold winds blow
Don’t cover up and hide
Be free and just let go
Have faith, enjoy the ride

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

Very perceptive Joe. I do write a lot of lyrics / poems.
I haven't put this one to music yet, but at some point, I will.
Thank you.

So beautiful: worthy of being put up on a wall for others to see.

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much John, and very insightful of you as well.
I actually have made this into a poster, with the words in the foreground of a tremendously scenic view of nature. I have a framed copy hanging in my studio and I made one for my son as well. It will probably be crafted into a song at some point because I do write lyrics for songs too. Thank you.
