TBT: Endurance (2008)

I was wondering what my ancestors
Would say to me
If I asked them why
People suffered so much-

With deep meditation
I looked for answers
Within my past
Within my soul
But found none
That brought me closure-

So I went to bed
And there I wept
Until I had fell asleep-

And in my dreams
I found a vision-

People spend too much time
Looking for answers-
Not for solutions
