Sometimes I feel so overwhelmed with the busy rush of life swirling around me. There is always so much to do. Run here, run there so you can buy this, buy that. Do, do, do! Such a frenzy to achieve the next thing, to reach the next goal. But so often it seems to me that there's nothing one can do, really. The most beautiful thing, the only thing that one can do is to simply be. It seems one person is too small to have any effect, it is impossible to really do anything. All we can do is observe the tempest around us and enjoy the stillness inside.

enough

The highest compliment I can pay

is enough.

My life is enough.

Were I to die tomorrow,

Know that I have loved and been loved.

I have experienced joy and grief and agony and ecstasy.

It is enough.

I could ask for nothing more.

I have all I need.

For those I love,

For you,

My friend,
Love of my soul,

You, you my love,

You are enough.

Just as you are.
Nothing more is asked.
Nothing more is needed.
