Endless

Stop waiting for someone to complete you.
A job to fulfill you.
A family to give you a purpose. 
A life, other than this one, to make you happy.

If you cannot find what completes you within your own heart, there is nothing and no one who can do it for you.
If you cannot find passion, fulfillment, purpose, and happiness in this moment, where you are right now, there is no person, place or thing which could ever give it to you.

There is an overwhelming tendency in this world, to assume that outward circumstances need to change for the better, before inner homeostasis reflects it.
That when we secure the right partner, the right business, the right car, the right community, the right house, the right stuff, then we'll be happy. That of we make our outward circumstances happy, fulfilling, secure, and perfect, our state of mind will follow. 
Nothing could possibly be further from the truth. 
It's this infatuation with external circumstances, which leads us on an endless cycle of seeking fulfillment in things which can offer only a temporary reprieve from inner lacking.
An endless pursuit of happiness.
Happiness cannot be pursued, only found.
Only chosen.

If you cannot find fulfillment within your own self, no one can find it for you.
If you cannot find home in your own backyard, you will never stop running. Holding out for something better, right around the corner. 
Waiting for something which is, and will always be, just out of reach. 
Come home to yourself, Beloved. 
What you seek is not outside.
It never was, nor will it ever be.
