Can It Be I Stayed Away Too Long?

Did I Leave Your Mind When I Was Gone?

Now that you are so far away…

…i notice time after time just how much i miss you. It’s not only the little things anymore. Home is wherever you are becomes such an obvious statement. The most beautiful song ever written about missing your love from a distance as a wonderful cover version. The Roots feat. Erykah Badu – I Wanna Be Where You Are is possibly the best Jackson 5 cover i know, and like any attempt of covering the Jacksons pales in comparison, but has a unique playful beauty of its own with its 70s sounding instrumentation, that compels me to move. A wonderful tune and one of those drift off to foreign places kind of songs where minds, hearts and souls connect across the vastness of oceans and continents. I wanna be where you are.

***Don't be driven by fear and don't go chasing pleasure. You will lose yourself in the world, the external.

***If you cannot find the truth right where you are,where else do you expect to find it?

***Have you ever sat very quietly with closed eyes
and watched the movement of your own thinking?
Have you watched your mind working?
Or rather, has your mind watched itself in operation,
just to see what your thoughts are,
what your feelings are,
how you look at the trees, at the flowers,
at the birds, at people,
how you respond to a suggestion or react to a new idea?
Have you ever done this?

***Slow Down. You will not miss a thing, but you will find the entire universe. Slow down!
