Another day I may have deemed myself lost
Today I will call myself settled
Maybe searching and suppressing thoughts
But am I really lost?
I know what and who I want
I know why I behave and act as I do
I know that which I should
I am far from knowing all which I could
I am far from so many I love
Yet, there is always a way, a link, an opportunity
To gather in spirit, in love, in speech
No, I cannot be lost
This simply cannot be
I am home
Settled in warmth
Surrounded by people who I love and love me
I am not lost
I am just where I must be
The dark has settled and enveloped the scene
The light, casting shadows, illuminate me
Family, warmth
Friendship, support
These are that which I need
Material things heed pleasure
But pleasure, I do not need
Gratefulness yields happiness
And happiness, health, and love is enough for me

It's the simple things in life that people need to realize are all we really need to find peace and happiness within. Thanks for the reminder. Nice job!
