Musings of a tormented soul

Last night I had a chat with a tormented soul
He told me he was feeling crushed
Crushed beneath the weight of expectations
Crushed by his anxiety and he could feel the cruel cold teeth of depression sinking in
They told him to find God
He asked; How do I seek someone I've never seen?
They said read His word and emulate His people surely you'll find Him
How do I seek Him in people when the people who claim to have Him are no better than myself?
How do I find someone in words?
It all sounded strange
Who is God?
Does He really exist or are we deceiving ourselves?
And the end of the chat, I realised I was staring into a mirror.
