Why Am I Here?

I’m not here to be perfect,
I’m here to be happy.
I’m not here to be perfectly happy,
I’m here to be work-in-progress happy.
I’m not here to tough it out,
I’m here to savor this moment.
I’m not here to notice what’s wrong,
I’m here to celebrate what’s right.
I’m not here to perfect the world,
I’m here to witness its perfection.
I’m not here to accomplish greatness,
I’m here to see the greatness in what I accomplish.
I’m not here to prove myself worthy,
I’m here to know myself worthy
And accept the benefits.
I’m not here to gain others’ approval,
I’m here to approve of myself
And let it go at that.
I’m not here to take life seriously,
I’m here to take life as it comes
And chuckle.
I’m not here to impose my beliefs on others,
I’m here to suspect we all have a chunk of the truth.
I’m not here to struggle my way to my goals,
I’m here to envision them, welcome them,
And dream up goals anew.
I’m not here to feel frustrated,
I’m here to feel fulfilled yet eager for more.
I’m not here to regret the past,
I’m here to say goodbye to it
With a kiss.
I’m not here to work off karma,
I’m here to play with the clay of creation.
I’m not here to fear death,
I’m here to allow my fears to die.
I’m not here to live in bliss,
I’m here to ever move in that direction.
I’m not here to fidget over setbacks,
I’m here to appreciate overall progress.
I’m not here to search for God,
I’m here to know there’s nothing else.
