Do not forget what you truly yearn for.
You yearn for God. You yearn for truth eternal. You yearn for the bliss of the Self which is beyond any personal mind.
The journey is in this lifetime. The path is the Dharma, the contemplation of the Self, the contemplation of truth.
What is it that does not come and go?
What am I truly? 
Am I that which I perceive? A mortal body mind form?
Contemplate the Dharma. It is Gods gift.
Cross that ocean. All is well.
