Divine Plan
Could you stay centered
In the midst of anger?
Can you argue passionately
Without losing your humanity?
Can you speak your heart
When it aches, without vengeance?
Can you lose a loved one,
And not protect your heart?
If you abandon all your goals,
And do not struggle with your life,
You will always be content.
If you do not insist on your destination,
You can never be lost.
People do not think of themselves
As one with the planets.
They toil and drift like a chip of wood,
On an angry river.
People believe that their lives are ruled by chances,
That they are random,
And filled with arbitrary occurrences.
Yet, men are one with the Universe.
People are like planets
And all events in their lives,
Are planned by one who
Has their highest good in mind.
The lives of men, may seem chaotic,
Yet much like the perfect order in the universe,
Which makes the planets, moons and the suns,
Rotate with perfect harmony and consistency.
Everything in the lives of men,
Is in perfect order.
But the hearts and minds of men,
Do not believe it can be so....
And their religions and faiths,
Disempowers great men.
It teaches them that they are sinners
And that their lives are small and insignificant...
And so, their vision grow short and narrow.
If the planets were kept in place,
By the sight, or memory or the power of men,
As they currently believe in it,
Stars will fall from the sky
And planets will collide into ashes.
