How many times do I have to fall down

Before I start paying attention?

And how many times, do I have to get sick

Before I start thinking “prevention”?

As many times as it takes to wise up

And to “get” what supports and is serving

But till then I’ll try to convince myself that

I am worthy… enough… and deserving!

Be You.

“Your problem is you are too busy holding on to your unworthiness.”

- Ram Dass

 I knew I was doing something wrong…

A devoted young man we’ll call Eddie

Was, in matters of faith, very steady

His Maker, with joy

Cried, “There’s room for this boy!”

But Ed said “No thanks, I’m not ready!”

Be You.

“Ask yourself whether the dream of heaven and greatness should be waiting for us in our graves – or whether it should be ours here and now and on this earth.”

- Ayn Rand

I hear you gotta know someone to get a reservation.

They said I couldn’t screw it up if I tried,

So loving a challenge, I set forth and tried

And I tried, (man, I tried!) till I just about died

Then lo and behold, the screw-up was done!

But why don’t I feel like a man… who just won?

Be You.
