Making Mistakes

The way to make all possible mistakes

is to live at full force,

running before the wind, at full sail,

screaming with excitement and delight.

And just a bit of fright.

 

This is one approach to the business of life.

Many people swear by this wild way.

Many others favour it but don't follow it

(from fear, perhaps).

 

Me?

My path is different--

committed to repose and reflection

rather than that full force business.

A path with greater emphasis on breath and silence

than on poking the old adrenal glands.

Let others live for excess.

I delight in the minimum.
