I am by Eric Hewes

On a good day, i dont ask for perfection.

I dont ask for emotional balance or the patience to deal with my problems.

On a good day, i dont ask for the support of my familiy.

I don’t ask for the compassion and understanding of others, and I dont try to fit in.

 

On a good day, i simply am.

A sentient passenger on a  on a journey of immesurable complexity and distance.

 

On a good day, i help others achieve perfection.

I help others to handle their emotions and take on their problems one by one.

On a good day, i reciprocate the tender love of those cloest to me.

I teach others the virtue of compassion and the empowerment of indaviduality..
