What is Needed is Completed

What is a trap
What is a door

Most live within traps
That they set for themselves

Love is not always love
Love is not a mystery

What the mind chooses
Is usually to prevent loss

Why does giving feel rewarding
Because you gave away something you did not need

You freed yourself from your mind’s hoarding
You were free in that moment

Free from feeling loss
Free from feeling fear

You gave
You gave and nothing happened

You did not lose
You did not become afraid

You gave
The other person received

It is easy to take what you want
Can you give away what you want

Can you give another
Everything you think you want

Can you share everything
Even what your mind hoards

Maybe you hoard dishes
Maybe you hoard your thoughts

If you are not giving
You are keeping everything for yourself

Maybe your cage
Is what freed you from the real cage

Maybe your freedom
Is what you run from

You run
Because you do not know how to live

How to live
Outside of your cage

Your mind’s cage
Something you can never fool

But the cage itself is a delusion
You have fooled yourself from the beginning

What brings pain and begs for closeness
Love ones of course

Not love that is neutral
The love of the mind that prevents loss

Loss of control
Loss of hoarding

Hoarding family
Hoarding ideas

Hoarding control
Hoarding everything that can be hoarded

Preventing freedom
Preventing living

What is truly needed on your path
Is completed

Sometimes consciously
Mostly unconsciously

If you choose to be on your path
Consciously

You can see the Light
In every direction

Your path
Is everywhere you go

What is needed
Is for you to let go

Step out of what you hide behind
Step out of what keeps you hidden

Accepting your path
Is the first conscious step on your path
