There is a basket of fresh bread on your head, and yet you go door to door asking for crusts. ~Rumi We have often tried to satisfy a deep inner hunger that we could not describe and didn’t understand. We followed the seductive call of physical pleasures, the allure of alcohol or other drugs, the excitement of gambling, or even the satisfactions of being the "helpful" codependent hero, trying to save others from their problems. These hollow attractions never satisfied our hunger. No matter how much we tried, they only left us more trapped in a dead-end search and less satisfied than ever. We find genuine satisfactions for our hunger when we develop self-respect, form caring bonds with friends, develop a relationship with our Higher Power, and follow a path with heart. All of that is available to us, and we only need to turn toward it to find it. Today, I seek a real slice of satisfaction in life rather than settling for crumbs. Today's reading is from the book Stepping Stones: More Daily Meditations for Men*
