A Smile

As man moves ahead in life
As he crosses borders that were out of reach
As he nails problems he thought were big
Existence. Mere existence no longer excites.

The true search then begins
A search for crossing borders that debates existence
A search that he thinks will bring the true smile
A search for a result that will truly be fulfilling
And so he walks

As he walks, Existence continues
This time the search is a partner
Existence now has now got a new meaning
A meaning even the seeker is blurred
The blur truth keeps him going

A hope that someday he will smile
A smile that is in symphony with the universe
A smile that will see nakedness in rights and wrongs
A smile that will explain existence
A smile so TRULY complete

More important for a smile to be in symphony with the soul, that little inner voice that controls happiness?
very often our smiles are governed by others and the day we realize that true happiness lies within us, thats the day existence takes on real meaning.
notice how some smiles never reach the eyes. And others' smiles suffuse the whole body and those around them with warmth?
