Less About Self

moving through this moment

this human experience

could not be less

about self

help

comes

to those who help

and joy, like love,

is not a noun

purpose and impact

only found

looking up, outward,

never down

love can be practiced

in picking green beans

and dreams

need imagination

to grow 

unafraid hands,

moving 

through this moment

the only way 

to stand

for what we believe

fear and exhaustion

cannot be conquered

by thoughts

not born

by action

indecisive hesitation

is not an option

for us ready

                to leave

existence 

               behind

and find

the eternity in our today,

understanding deeper 

each day

the way

to where

our purpose lives

is already

under our feet

and we 

must only keep walking

to see the next step
