It’s not what I look like
but how I see
that makes me shine,
that makes me me
It’s not what I know
but how I hear
that makes my course of action clear
If I go out without a pre-made script,
free of opinions,
I can be equipped
with emptiness that’s able to receive
whatever cries for gathering,
whatever needs
to rest and grow, and to be seen,
and bring its latent gifts
to vibrant being
Not how I see myself
but what I give
will feed my spirit
and make me live.
