About this poem

As i grew bigger in my understanding towards Buddhism, a big Part of the understanding spread from Harmony within, in Buddhism does Something Like seperatism not exist. So in regard of my Haiku, isn't evry Problem or challange Always already solved within itself ?.... Isn't the only thing that Changes from situation to situation Our Outlook on how things are ?... That is the Message i try to give you all on your way to a more Peaceful and more satisfied Life.
