self,

exist with the reality that things

can be

changed.

self,

gain courage, develop strength &

wisdom will come in the process of

knowing that one can never truly

know enough---

one must always be learning.

self,

know that “surrender” eliminates

focus, know that this world is

how we make it,

here,

now,

alone & together,

without any metaphysical recourse.

self,

if there is to be a concept like “trust,”

know that you must invest it in yourself

first---know that each day is a step in

your direction,

be it an error to learn from or a successful

move to hail & use to strategize the next.

self,

know that there is no need to

“accept the things that cannot be changed,”

if you truly don’t want to &

you act on this premise.
