Many spiritual people, including myself, have refered to themselves as seekers.  It presents the idea of a continual process.  It gives the impression we are looking for something we do not already have.  I think of it as more of a process of reconnecting.  It is about moving in the direction of revealing what lies under the layers of what is not our true essence to reconnect to what has been there all along.  It can be prompted by searching and finding elements of this experience outside ourselves.  Ultimately it is the connection within us to the thing or idea outside of us that opens the door to seeing what we had not seen before.  God is basically hiding in plain sight.  It is not until we let go of what we think God is and begin seeking to find God as God does will we see again.  It involves turning inward and sitting through the noise that arises when we get quiet.  It means not abandoning ourselves when we see a side of ourselves we do not like revealed in someone else.  God does not make it hard to seek him. She delights in the reconnecting with us.  We are the ones who make it more complicated because in our minds we think of God as being so vast and multifaceted that it must be complicated.  We have forgotten in our seeking that God does not need us to understand God.  God just wants to be with us in our hearts and is waiting for the invitation to reveal love.
