when you spend your time "seeking" you don't find much of anything. you are incessantly looking for what isn't there. like searching for figures in the dark, you strain your sight. you invent apparitions. but there's a secret you know. the one scribbled in your bones, unlocking all insight. the secret is now. the secret is "that everything in this moment tells you enough". there is nowhere else to look.
cease to seek, and instead, soften your gaze
peer deeply into the eyes of a moment, saying with a sigh
"ah, there you are."
