I Am All There Is

I take a deep breath
Followed by another,  
My eyes closed  
Waiting for the light    
Within the darkness  
To reveal itself.  
   
The light does not always appear  
Sometimes it is but a soft glow,  
I chase the glow,
Like looking for shapes within clouds,
Waiting... Hoping... Wishing...  
That The Way will be revealed.  
   
I may not be ready to receive,
So, quietly, patiently, I sit in stillness  
Breathing... Searching... Seeking...  
The truth is within me,  
That, I know is certain.  
   
I find many times I want to know,  
But do not have the time or patience to understand,  
To truly seek the knowledge,  
It is sad when being comfortable is acceptable,
Maybe that is why I am never satisfied?  
   
This thing we call meditation  
Is not about finding peace,
Cause peace is naturally in us.
It is about revealing the answers    
to the questions you did not know to ask,  
Using that new found knowledge  
to better yourself in ways you did not know were possible.  
   
In meditation  
We open ourselves to the universe  
Where all knowledge is exchanged  
We then become enlightened  
When that knowledge is bestowed upon us  
And we are able to finally remember...  
   
...I am all there is.
