The Search

by Gene Robinson

What if you met someone who could actually tell you exactly how to live your life in complete fulfillment? Or maybe someone would write a book about how it might happen, so you could still learn from it, just as if you yourself had been right there in that situation. It would be a fascinating adventure for most. And if you continued to practice these newly found learnings for the duration of your time here, then you would be example for your Children and friends alike - leaving in your wake, a solid foundation for a content society. Wouldn't it be wonderful if most of the people you made any sort of contact with were individuals who were at peace with who they are, and what they are doing with their life? The result would be a very pleasant experience for everyone. You see, the truth is it's not the things you have, or how much money; nor is it where you live, or even who you are... but simply if you THINK you are happy. Then, all that would be left is we allowing ourselves this privilege of being escorted by contentment through every day, for the rest of our days. A fine scenario. Now - let's begin.
