The Mirror Isn’t What’s Reflected

If we continue to trade 

What’s soulful for what’s material 

Our lives will be empty 

And the yearning will continue


Nourishment comes from more than food 

Spirit from more than intoxicants 

Comfort from more than luxury

Beauty from more than what the eye can see



Wealth comes from more than possessions 

Connection from more than sex and shallow friendships 


The mirror isn’t what’s reflected 


Someday we will realize

Healing is not in our minds

Or in the world outside 

But deep in our souls

In the river of life
