He says keep changing, you just get more who you really are.
He says get stuck, accept it repeat
Yourself as long as it's interesting.
 
He says keep doing what you love
 
He says keep praying.
 
He says everyone of us is a child,
Everyone of us ins ancient, everyone of us has a body.
He says everyone of us if frightened.
He says everyone of us has to find a way to live with fear.
 
He says everything is alive---
Shells, buildings, people,
Fish, mountains, trees,
Wood is alive
Water is alive.
 
Everything has its own life
 
Everything lives inside us.
 
He says live with the world inside you.
 
He says it doesn't matter if you draw, or write books.
It doesn't matter if you saw wood, or catch fish.
It doesn't matter if you sit at home and stare at the ants on your veranda
Or shadows of the trees and grasses in your garden.
It matters that you care.
 
It matters that you feel.
 
It matters that you notice.
 
It matters that life lives through you.
 
Contentment is life living through you.
Joy is life living through you.
Satisfaction and strength is life living through you.
Peace is life living through you.
 
He says don't be afraid.
Don't be afraid.
 
Look, feel, let life take you by the hand.
 
Let life live through you.

All the Best!
