The race is run in darkness and we rarely understand, that reaching out for answers is like counting grains of sand, every now and then we are bathed in the purist light of a lonely distant lighthouse that penetrates the night, every now and then we reach and touch the stars, catch a glimpse of the eternal that runs through who we are, everything breaks down and everything decays, we have to constantly remember that nothing lasts forever, that when we form attachments, when we invest our all, nothing lasts forever we're just setting up to fall, like the flowing river and the lush green land, that will one day start to wither and turn to desert sand, so when we form attachments and cover up our eyes, nothing lasts forever, we just believe in our own lies, everything’s reborn and everything’s recycled, we have to constantly remember that everything’s born again, when you perceive the true nature and you’ve no fear of the future the constraints of forever will combine and give you strength and when the day comes that you return unto the earth, remember death is your placenta and its essential for rebirth.
