As you stop and determine what you are truly seeking, everything changes. Notice which choices distract you from getting to know who you are.  Reaching outside yourself does not bring completeness. The process of deep surrender allows all illusions to disperse and disappear. The ego and emotional patterns no longer control focus of attention.  What remains is true nature. Notice what is always present. Everything is real to the senses until you wake up to see that which never changes is actually real.  The sky is the container that is always here whereas the cloud that seem real come and go.  The moment is true essence.  It never comes and goes.
