Sharing Life

I wonder if most people
are really seeking the answers
to the deepest questions
of existence.

Maybe what most people
are searching for
is far simpler:
a sense of community
and a little bit of laughter,
like the joy of sharing a meal with friends.

To sit around a table
in the company of others,
To smile,
To belong,
To be loved,
Is anything truer,
or more beautiful, than that?
Though the stars are innumerable,
And the soul is a mystery
without end.
