Seeking Purpose

The world goes too fast.

I walk among the flowers,

I stand beneath the trees.

I go to the ocean,

feel the sand shift beneath my feet,

a slow, euphonious sigh.

in that vastness

the pull of the moon on the water,

the sky eating the horizon

I see it.

I am but one small fragment

in a universe so vast,

my name a temporary breath.

To be memorable,

then,

is not to shout louder

or run faster.

It is to be, at last,

authentic.

To be that one true self,

fully formed,

and shining.

Thank you for reading, I appreciate your time. Many blessings.
