What Others Think

Why are we so concerned about 
what others think?
We feel guilty for quiet moments,
little corners of happiness, 
and pieces of heaven 
that we come across.

Instead of sharing, we hide 
and pretend to act
like the others.
Conforming to frowns of
dissatisfaction, judgement, and
shaking of the head.

The truth is, we all yearn
for these moments.
Ones that lighten our spirits 
and open our hearts.

These treasures are not for hiding
or pushing aside.
The true path is to share and 
bring this knowing light 
into the world.

Namaste
