Where am I standing?

Where am I standing?
Why can’t I let go?
What is keeping me from it?
Why can’t I make myself happy?
It is so easy!
Smile and be happy.
Enjoying the moment
and not waiting for a dream that might never become reality.
What is wrong with reality anyway?

It can all be so easy!
Why am I stuck in a nostalgia, a childhood, that is lost and that I long for.
Where is my balance?
Why can’t I get my expectations under control?
Why do I make everything depend on others?

When I am the only one, who can make myself happy.
Why am I looking for security somewhere else, when it has to come from within!

Excuse me, how to I get from Here to Now?
I think I lost my way!
That’s very easy! You are already here in the Now. In the Here and Now.
Actually you can’t get lost. You just need to open your eyes.
Do you see this Tree? This Flower? This Boat?
All of them are in the Here and Now. Just like the two of us.

You only have to stop refusing to open your eyes.
