At times you meet someone on your way who looks like he's found it. And he tells you how, and you follow directions, and it feels fine - but still, it's like it doesn't lead you to same place as it has led him.

So you keep on searching. Sometimes you really enjoy this quest. Sometimes it drives you crazy. Sometimes you feel hopeless. Sometimes you feel inspired.

Maybe one day you find it. Somehow. Somewhere. Maybe it is exactly where you were told it will be. Maybe it is exactly how you imagined it to be.

But then, maybe, just maybe, after you've been searching like that for a long, long time, one day you wake up understanding that by now you know every inch of this town. There are no more places you can search. But it's OK.

In fact, you love every street you walked, and every house you've seen, and you care about every person you've met. As a matter of fact... Suddenly you realize that you are home already, and it's not a particular house or street, it's town itself that's your home. And home feels good...

Maybe I see you there? :-))

Indeed, few of us know God's true name because we're so busy chasing and looking for this elusive being outside of ourselves. But, looking within will show you your true God and, with that, His name is your own. In beginning of our lives, our own Universe, our name was spoken. However, by speaking of ourselves in reverse, "speaking our name backwards", or not following our true goals and desires with gifts available to us all, we can undo our own creation. I don't mean that you'll disappear in a puff of smoke, but your existence here on this planet will be meaningless, thus undoing "purpose of your own personal creation".

Consider that by looking inward you can create any Universe you desire. Look inside for creator and encapsulation of all wonders of your Universe. Your life can be what you desire simply by demanding of your God, yourself, your manifestations of life. --- About Author ---
