i ask myself...

 

“ … for the love and beauty of the game”

on this brand new day
i ask myself to remember

to go slow
oh, even slower

to pause
often

and listen to life
with my whole body

to respond from
my true values

and observe the birth and death
of my thoughts - closely

i ask myself to remember
to know the internal landscape
as well as i know my own home

and care for them both
with tenderness

to laugh and play
with self-abandonment

for the love and beauty
of the Game
