Search and you will find.
Knock and the door will be opened.
Sometimes we are anxious , at other times resigned.
A door closes and then is reopened.

I was at mass in the early morning.
It was in French , I was half asleep.
And then I started listening.
And here were words to treasure and keep.

For all my doubting.
I have to keep searching.
And maybe I will end up finding.
If I stop resisting.

No longer pleasure seeking .
But pausing, not away running.

……..

As the Buddha paused
Accepting experience
Not grasping at it

……

See Luke 11 : 5-18
