The long dark night of the soul Is coming to an end And I am moving to Chicago I arise at 3am and begin My accent up the 4000 footer At 5am and only meet up with stragglers after the descent at 11am. Then I will be ready for an equally healthy Meetup! Someone who has meditated 6 hours and exercised 2 hours. The worldly people's minds are in a perpetual fog, it is a long time before their fog clears and they find their day is over as they watch the sunset. Now that my long dark night of the soul is over even though it too was a journey of bliss, now instead of seven years in Tibet, I can spend eight years in Sach Khand!l As they make plans for their climb #manana I can take sweet pleasure in #beentheredonethat In a way I never stop climbing that mountain and never come down and there is no tomorrow.
