Soulsong #486 – Why Am I Here? – Part II

I’m not here to fix a broken world,

I’m here to notice all the ways the world is not broken.

I’m not here to feel others’ pain,

I’m here to applaud their triumphs.

I’m not here to grieve over the departed,

I’m here to know there is no death.

I’m not here to struggle my way to success,

I’m here to be happy – the greatest success of all.

I’m not here to compete for resources,

I’m here to know there is no lack.

I’m not here to search out the perfect partner,

I’m here to relax and let my partner appear.

I’m not here to forgive,

I’m here to forget it ever happened.

I’m not here to leave a legacy,

I’m here to live my legacy each day.

I’m not here to analyze the facts,

I’m here to view things with optimistic bias.

I’m not here to avoid trouble,

I’m here to focus on what I like and want.

I’m not here to envy others,

I’m here to concentrate on my own dreams.

I’m not here to preach a sermon,

I’m here to live with joy and let others draw conclusions.

I’m not here to control my environment,

I’m here to let it freely respond to my happy desires.

I’m not here to complain about the government,

I’m here to know I alone govern what enters my experience.

I’m not here to worry about the Earth,

I’m here to do my part and leave it at that.

I’m not here to await a compliment, promotion, or windfall,

I’m here to feel good right now.

I’m not here to reach an ultimate end-point,

I’m here to know there’s eternally more.

I’m not here to humbly serve a Creator,

We are here to create together,

Thus expanding all-that-is.
