I believe in a lot of what you talked about here.

I have written a lot of poetry but this poem was written for me. Thought you might enjoy reand it.

I was carrying groceries into the house on a hot day and pondering a problem I had.

I had an overwhelming urge to sit down and write. These words came just this way – never changed anything. I called it “Channelling From Somwhere.”

“Why are you deciding what is best for you?
And the progression it must take?

Lie back. Relax.
Life is to be savored,
not shoved into submission,
to be experienced,
not regimented to your orders.

Be in it, not of it,
not the Captain,
but a ship sailing waves,
resting in troughs,
skidding along crests,
even smashing broken
on a shore.
It’s a ride,
not a struggle.

There is nothing to win,
no game to lose,
a cast of thousands,
with the dearest ones
sometimes offstage.

Don’t spoil the performance
by searching through the scenery.
It disturbs the other actors
if you are inattentive.

Play with ones who are there.
It’s not fair to miss your entrance
in their scene.

Don’t decide anything.
If you could remember,
you would know
you decided long ago.”
