I used to think...

that purpose could be attained through an external source. I have realized that purpose is only realized through internal conflict and/or self-experience. Once I was able to pull the roots out of my equation, it became much easier to see life from a different perspective. The unfortunate irony is that now with my eyes finally wide open, I feel at more often than not the want and need to close them from my new reality. In the end I now know that the land of confusion has been taken for granted... so many people know not the many truths they strive to unravel within their ugly souls.
