Poetry: Emptiness has a deeper meaning only to itself, in our self.

The lethargy of emptiness filled me up with itself.
I lagged behind myself, never catching who I am as me.
A deeper meaning of life has never found me, in me.
No intercessory has been made whatever it be to be me.
I feel like a nothing, to life, myself, and to God.
Nothing fills anything in any of these three for me.
My heart has been killed by inactionabilityness, alive.
Energies, to be energy, must be energised to be free.
Life lives from itself, emptied out into love, or God.
We never see this, as we do not know what empties us.
Fill ourselves up with God's love, and we'll see all in it all.
Lethargy, and emptiness, never play ball, to enthral all.
Nothing but life, love, or God, can ever turn our blades.
Life enlivens us so too.
We can't spin our own wheels.
We need to trust God to allow that to happen for us in our life.

Thanks, Scott
That's a hard job to do, without the proper tools, or the help of others, but then again, wouldn't any grain do, as aren't they all mostly the same.

@innertalks each grain of sand is unique, so you must find the exact one!

@innertalks there is a eastern writer who says that the greatest gift is seeing that each grain of sand is different.

We need to live in the life force and fully be alive in it and be energized by it.
I pump myself at times that I am part of the humongous outfit and my life should become spiritual not by mere words but by actions too.
We should never lose connection to our Creator and always feel his presence in us. God is everywhere and hence the connection is ready at hand. It is akin to how we switch on for the current to flow and, in our lives, for love to flow and for us to soak in it.

Yes, as is often quoted, "no man is an island."
We can't spin those big wheels on our mill, just by our own powers alone. We need help from others, from God, from life, and from love.
Connection to others means when we all work together, we all progress together, rather than trying just to push our own cart uphill alone, where it simply, rolls back down on top of ourselves, and squashes us to the ground, with its karma.

@innertalks It is natural for us to seek reaffirmation that we are on the right track whatever we choose to do.
If what we engage in is for social good, then the fulfillment is ultimate. That gives us reassurance that we are doing God's bidding.

@Shiva49 Yes, what we do should always benefit all, and harm none, including ourselves.
Self-destructive acts always harm more than just ourselves.
