holes


I need to stop this thing that im doing. Every time I dig myself deeper and with every new hole I just cant find the treasure at the bottom. Im afraid to dig any deeper because I once got lost and started digging away, I think I almost made it to the end but that hole was starting to cave in so I had to escape. I have the will to keep on digging but it doesnt make sense to dig if I know im going to just find water at the end.
Sometimes people will stand at the edges of my holes and try to fill them up. If I try to scare them away somehow they always bring back more people.
Now after all that digging im tired and I still have my life ahead of me. So why am I so tired, I have people to help out and know were to dig but every time I just scare them away. Why do I all ways give up just as im about to make it? "I might try harder next time" I always say to myself but I end up trying less and less each time.

  1. Maybe a treasure is not at the bottom of the hole. Maybe you just somehow got the idea that holes have treasures at the bottom.

    Maybe digging the hole is a distraction and you don't notice that either you don't need a hole or that a treasure is not down there, but somewhere else

    Maybe the digging is the point of it all. Gets you in shape, toughens you up for the life ahead of you.

    Maybe the treasure is you. Or maybe the treasure is inside of you. Maybe the treasure is just too much to deal with right now. Maybe all you have to do is look inside of you. Maybe digging is not working for a reason.

    Maybe it's all about the process and not the treasure. Maybe it's all about traveling down the road and not where you are going. Maybe you'll find what you need as you travel and where ever you go it'll be just fine because you learned what you needed to know mile by mile as you did your traveling.

    Maybe it's the thinking and the wondering and deciding that counts.

    You just never know. Maybe the treasure is you. Maybe you have to figure out how to share the treasure with others who really need it. You just never know.
