The days of this life are short and evil, full of sorrow and misery, where a person is stained with many sins, ensnared by many passions, bound by many dears, swollen buy many cares, distracted by many curiosities, entangled by many vanities, surrounded by many mistakes, weakened by many efforts, weighed down by temptations, sapped by pleasures, tormented by wants.
When will there be an end to all these? When shall I be freed from this wretched slavery? When shall I be truly free, without anything standing in my way, with no inner confusion and conflict? When shall I find a solid peace – peace calm and secure; peace inside and out, peace firm in every way?
When shall I be with you in your kingdom?
