What Lies Within
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us – Oliver Wendell Holmes
Whenever this world makes you feel insignificant, it is important to remember:
You are not your job title.
You are not the contents of your safety deposit box.
You are not the sum of your bank account.
You are not the style of the clothes that you wear.
You are not the identity of your name.
You are an eternal being,
Though born of earthly parents,
You are the fulfillment of life’s yearning for itself.
You are an eternal being,
Whose body is made of the atoms from the stars in the heavens,
Whose mind comes from the wisdom of the DNA.
You are an eternal being,
Whose life is a quest to discover its meaning,
A meaning to be discovered by only you.
What lies within you,
Is the secret of your existence,
And the ultimate meaning of who you are.
