The following is from the 151 writings on love, intimacy and the path to inner peace from David's book, Phoenix Soul: One Man's Search for Love & Inner Peace © 1998 David Essel
What I Really Want
What I really want is peace
The inner calmness that flows nonstop
Allowing the real me to glow
Allowing the real me to show through
What I really want is self love
The kind that is so easy to give to others
To take away this pain
The pain that accompanies personal growth
You see, when you decide to grow
You decide to let go
To let go of your past behaviors
To let go of your past beliefs
But my God, they've been with me for so long
Belief in my insecurity
Belief in my lack
These beliefs are like shackles to the past
What I really want is to grow
To let go of my frustrations
To let go of my prejudices
Even the ones I hold against myself
Sit and think of what you really want
Enough of the distractions
Work, food, or drink
They all can be used to stunt our growth
"Now is not the time to run"
I say this to myself daily
Face your fears
And surround them with love, your own love
