What If

What if I quit looking for answers or for any thing ~ love, appreciation or approval ~ outside of myself?

What if I trusted that I knew exactly what to do, and how, when and where to do it? What might be available to me?

I've spent my life like the almost sphere in Shel Silverstein's book, The Missing Piece, looking for someone or something else to complete me. What if I stopped? What if I knew that I was already and always complete despite that chunk out of my side that would seem to indicate otherwise?

What if I started asking myself for my answers and for the things I desire?

Well, my friend, I might just have found personal responsibility and the peace, love and joy that go along with it.
