Perhaps what's most important
is already within you.
Perhaps the answers to your questions
are there at your heart's fingertips.
Or perhaps, once you connect with your inner storehouse
of truth and holiness and wholeness,
none of the questions matter;
it's not about content, but communion.
"I and the Father are one," says Jesus,
inviting us to acknowledge the same.
And so,
when we are able to clear a bit of the rubble
of what's broken within,
we will rediscover that Essential Self,
where, truly,
"I and the Eternal, the Infinite, the All-Gracious, the All-Embracing
are one."
One.
It's already there within you.
