*****
Evolve, the world does.
Ever changing,
Ever challenging.
Enough time passes and
Everyone searches for answers.
Easy, the search is not.
Everyone yearns for the
Essence. The
Essence of what we are, who we are,
Even where we came from.
Especially where we’re going.
Enter the yearning for significance.
Every person searches for it.
Every person wants to matter.
Every person wants to stand out.
Endings approach;
Easy, they are not.
Erase the mistakes of your past.
Even out the playing field for your future.
Events do not define you; your heart does.
