Cracking the Code

A New Poem

I’ve been pretty much homebound the last ten days, trying to get over my first ever bout of vertigo. Not fun. It makes me (for the thousandth time) wonder what this life is all about. You know?

What if
life was all
about cracking
the code?
The first step
would be
figuring out
that there is
a code
to crack.
What if 
the cipher
was to determine
your purpose,
and that truly
breaking through
to the answer
was living
that purpose?
It wouldn’t
necessarily be
something lofty 
or extravagant.
Maybe it 
could be
being kind.
Or cooking
beautiful meals.
Or playing music.
Or dancing hula.
Or making art.
Or writing poems.
What if
the act of
writing this
was actually
cracking the code?

I am so fortunate to have family that does write, do art, make music and dance hula!
