Riding the wind, soaring high into the sky
Like a kite, the mind wants to be free and fly
Where a string controls and holds back the kite
The mind is subject to fear and anxiety that might
Hold it back from exploring and testing the unknown
Keeping it a prisoner of our own comfort zone
Water rushing downriver towards the ocean
Held in by river banks restricting and guiding its motion
Our mind too is channeled by our own projection
Into a pre-determined and given direction
Not letting it roam freely and happily perceive
All the great adventures and victories we could achieve
Just like gravity pulls everything back to ground
Holding our mind back is not very sound
We need to let it expand without restriction
Remove all obstacles, limitations, or friction
Only a mind that is unbound and free
Will let us see and experience all we can be
