Purpose Seeking

 So take your map as a guideline, count every setback as a lesson learned. We are the travelers, we are the light, purpose-seeking across the landscapes worldwide.

 

Woke to the echo of natural rhythms,

sipping a cup of tea,

and starting a new journey forward.
compass in my pocket, 

Passion in my mind,
 listening to a voice like -

a bell through the bright sky.
Move on, move forward,

find your truth,

find your authentic self.

I’m purpose-seeking,

horizon-reaching,
Tracing the change on-

the timeline from yesterday to tomorrow.
I’ll follow something worth believing,
Even if the path begins within.

I’ll carry the truth even of -

the reality is very complex,

the boundary blurred somehow.
Turn the small sparks into -

something bright.
Purpose-seeking,

and I’m ready now to reckon
overcoming the shadow to-

find the light of being innovative.

 Learn to understand the silence,

listen to unspeakable.
Every yes or “no” is a doorway I can choose of.
Walk through this tough land,

find the truth with clarified insight.

There’s a look in the world of differences,
A story that only the wisest understands.
If I bend, I’ll learn how to stand,
If I feel upset,

I’ll learn how to mend.

Maybe purpose isn’t at a place on the surface,
Maybe it’s hidden above and under, somewhere.

a series of choices, a set of goals.
Maybe it’s lighting another’s darkness,
Maybe it’s singing loud,

even when it’s stark.
I’ll build a bridge from the doubts.
Walk across it cautiously, 

because the waters run deep.

Moment by moment,

step by step,
We learn different perspectives,

we become inspired sometime, somewhere.

 So take your inner sense as a guide,
Count every setback as a lesson learned.
We are the travelers,

we are the light,
Purpose-seeking across the landscapes across the globe.
