We already are what we want to become. We don't have to become someone else. All we have to do is to be ourselves, fully and authentically. We don't have to run after anything. We already contain the whole cosmos. We simply return to ourselves through mindfulness and touch the peace and joy that are already present within us and all around us. I have arrived. I am home. There is nothing to do.
