Traveling Home

When we reach a certain milieu
And question our way (path) of life -
Who are we?
Where are we going?
As we struggle through
Storms and strife.

Some are caught up in reading books
For gaining wealth on earth,
How to enrich their pocket books
Increase their total net worth.

Others spend time reading
Ancient scriptures of the past
In hopes they will shed some light
On a permanence that lasts.

Its the soul within that's restless,
Seeking its own to know -
God's love it must attach to
So its consciousness can grow.

Your soul has just been sleeping
The dark night so alone
And now it is awakening
God's call to travel home.
