Alone is a usual state
Among friends, colleagues and family
Outside looking in
Wondering, my thoughts wander
People are in need
Supporting and helping
I do mean it
Wondering if I really do
Hypocrisy is an epidemic
Me too, I guess
Everyone it seems
All wandering for meaning
Meaning is a fools chase
There is no meaning
There is caring and love and hate
Wondering why we search
Anxious, losing perspective
The mind becomes more limited
Hurry up and finish, but why?
Wandering with purpose, really?
Happiness is the goal
What makes us happy?
Giving, smiles, helping
Wondering how to do more
Blessed but have trouble seeing it
Blinded by the unnecessary
Stuck
Wondering how to get unstuck
Energy and enthusiasm is drained
Sapped by not finding, yet trying
Time is the only currency
Wondering if it’s well spent
