Longing

• I dream I am walking.
• Walking in the desert; nothing around me or behind me.
• Nothing except the white warm sand.
• I am not hot, nor do I feel any discomfort.
• My clothes are clean and light.
• I am traveling alone, but I am not worried or lonely.
• My soul feels free and cleansed.
• Further ahead of me I can see a well of water and the sun shining beautifully.
• I do not look away, for the sun does not blind me; it welcomes me.
• I am not thirsty, but the well is there for me.
• I go forward, with no afterthought of what I leave behind.
• For what awaits me is far better than what I leave.
• The end of anguish and the beginning of never-ending bliss.
