993. Knock at the right door
Father, I am doomed.Frustration has killed me.
Nothing on earth gives me joy.
Nothing on earth will ever give me joy.
Nothing, nothing.
“Daughter,
Do you know why you are
So frustrated?
You are frustrated
Because
You expect and expect
From the world.
“You are frustrated
Because
You expect and expect
From yourself.
“I tell you, daughter,
You are knocking
At the wrong doors.
“Knock at the right door:
My Heart-Door.
Lo, frustration out,
Illumination in.”
