I’m grappling with the mystery

Of how to live a life

With joy and generosity

a presence gentle and kind

Forgiving mistakes from the past

Pushing aside future hypothetical

Resisting the usual cast

The fear, the doubt, the cynical

Love is always potent

Giving attention to what’s admirable

Focusing on the moment

The here, the now, the miracle

Well, I’m at peace with my self

In the centre of the labyrinth

I’ve reached a calmer place

While everything is scattering

Forgiving mistakes from the past

Pushing aside future hypothetical

Resisting the usual cast  (Nothing is meant to last)

The fear, the doubt, the cynical

Kindness is always potent

Giving attention to what’s admirable

Focusing on the moment

The here, the now, the miracle

We all search for truths

And our authentic calling

Trying to find balance

When we’re already falling

Empathy is always potent

Giving attention to what’s admirable

Focusing on the moment

The here, the now, the miracle
