Very nice words. The thing is we never find our purpose, our purpose finds us. If we search for it we end up lost inside a world of tinted mirrors looking into darkened walls. Let your purpose find you.. I loved the write. Keep up the good work.

| I think the reason for our existance is to be forever looking for our purpose in life. There are no answers, only the contentment of accepting your Fate. |

you and me, both. Nice capture of the process, feeling and frustration in trying to identify some personal destiny.

A great piece of writing here. Every time I think I have found my purpose, it changes and I am on the search again.

The search for purpose can quite literally drive us mad!
A wonderful myriad of musing, P. Writing down thoughts,
placing them in a row, and musing over them can be quite
therapeutic. I have felt this on numerous occasions .. almost
to the point of suffocation. Maybe there is no way to know
of purpose until the end ... then again .... ^_^
Great post!!

This poems holds so much truth,
and something for everyone...
It leaves much for the imagination,
and forces one to face those thoughts that
cross most peoples live at least once in
a lifetime...
This poem makes one think...
It grips, and doesn't let go.
I like it!

Man, I really like this! I have delved into the same thought processes. I like the beginning...are we outside or inside ourselves? Maybe the soul is a floating, invisible ball of energy consciousness that is /'/tethered/'/ so to speak, to our physical bodies? That would explain this separateness that we feel.
At any rate, I really like what you wrote here. I hope you write and post some more. I enjoy reading your stuff. Thanks for commenting on one of mine.
