Alignment

Life seems to include phases of "misalignment" or "disalignment" with the self's core. We are continually in flux with our desires, plans, experiences, obsessions, feelings, other forces, etc. Through the search of something "else" besides what is, we become disengaged/detached from the very energy of life. That's not to say that we must accept the status quo and not strive for more, but we need to keep a complete perspective. Must remember to experience life with the wonder and passion that it deserves.
