Each day we seek 
What’s the secret
Or at least a formula
Making a bet
In living perfect. 

But we don’t need
To overcomplicate,
Nor worry, nor rush
We’re not early, not late
Rather, we’re simply here
In its purest state.

A life of meaning, of joy
Is not a far-flung dream
But a daily choice.

Smile & try
Love & help out
Eat right, do right
Cultivate presence,
And resilience
Learn to embrace
The imperfect
And stay curious
Living with purpose.
