“The true profession of a man is finding his way to himself.” Herman Hesse My Soul is learning earthly habits…. It’s finding its true Nature and growing with ‘wisdom’
How many lives must my Soul live
To capture and know its true desire
What I wouldn’t give
To know my Soul and what really sets it afire
Myself, a body standing out in the Universe
With all the planets; God may I now go in reverse
Introduce my Soul which seems to stand in granite
Soften my Soul gradually as it (sheds) and becomes less stagnant
Why didn’t I take better care
Why didn’t I realize, why wasn’t I made aware
That the body of me was more than me, ( myself and I)
Why when we were learning our ABC”s and 1,2,3’s
In kindergarten where we all begin to learn
To discern
Habits, words and playful ideas
To form strong thoughts so we can be free as
The wind that tickles and rustles the tree branches
We are loose enough to join the dances
To learn early that life is full of chances
Grab on to that early thought that romances
Your Body, Mind and Soul
The kind of world that fits your nature and nourishes your Soul!
The essence of your chosen work which makes you whole
So many are we that fit the category
Of would have been, should have been or even worse
Might have been; if we hadn’t listened to one who sounded so mandatory And don’t palm it off as a curse
If you or I were good folks of intention
There would be no need to mention
A life that could or may have been
No need to place blame except on our own inventions
