find an ample measure of my own joy.

95% of what we teach others.

Adding one to my count of days, or postponing

feel the wind newly on my skin,
touch a new fear, a new anger,
and with focused intent and good fortune,
find an ample measure of my own joy.

we need to become our own loving teacher and coach.

we develop true regard for ourselves,
and our life will become sacred.

and they graciously honor all other opinions.
