The Path of the Mystic

Poems From The Porch

to see beauty everywhere

while not considering whether I am beautiful

to think generously about the wonders of life

while not worrying if I am making an impact

to feel deeply the suffering of others

while not taking their behavior personally

to rejoice in every little miracle

while not wallowing in self-pity

to be so focused on love

that self-referencing no longer makes sense
