Let Me Never Forsake

Lord, give to me
the realization of
seeing things as they
are, and not how
I want them to be.

When I experience
difficulty, let me
pause & choose again,
because I know how
finite this Ego is.

Let me never forsake
such a great kindness,
from you towards all
loving & living beings!

I Hear This

I hear this:

When I renounced selfish desires,
there was nothing morbid about it.

I had no grasping in the method,
I was not motivated to be wiser or holy.

I acted just to save myself from myself,
I refound a purity which was never lost.

In finding, I love what is there,
and I love what was not.
