If You Want To (Today’s Poetry)

If you want to be a painter, paint

If you want to be a dancer, dance

If you want to be a singer, sing

If you want to be a writer, write.

If you want to be a teacher, teach

If you want to be a giver, give

If you want to be a an artist, create

If you want to be an architect, draw

If you want to be a business person, do business

If you want to be happy, Be happy

If you want to be peaceful, be at peace

If you want to be a lover, give love

If you want to be a great meditation teacher, meditate often, Teach meditation. hang out with great meditation teachers. Read books by great yogis, masters and sages. Be peaceful. Be happy. Keep your mind on the higher things.  Remind yourself of who you are and what it is that you have to do. Do it your way. Have fun in the process. Think about it. Speak about it. Write about it.  Prove that it works in your life and inspire others to do the same.

If you want to be a painter, paint.
