Fulfillment is entirely up to you.
In simply being, there's enough content,
Freeing all to lead a happy life.
The source of disappointment is intent,
Yearning for far more than one need do.

For some there is much joy in noble strife.
One would wounds heal and shattered lives renew.
Uncouple caring from accomplishment,
Retaining love for what is good and true.
