Sometimes the mind says:
I want to immigrate to somewhere sunny;
I want to change this old car;
I want a younger lover to make me feel young;
I need to toss my wardrobe because I am sick of these old clothes;
I could have done more with my life…
But when the heart opens to self-love, to a Conscious God Force pulsing everywhere,
then, the song of the village rooster is enough;
a snow-capped mountain is a majestic testament;
a warm hug is all the safety in this world;
and sleeping with a calm conscious is like owning a diamond.
You might be living in heaven now, yet insisting on finding it elsewhere!
~ Kambiz Naficy
