One Third

I don't think we suffer from a lack of knowledge

Despite the fact that learning goes deeper than the depth of an ocean

I don't think we live in a time where removing "ignorance" is the actual solution

Too many words in written text, and spoken language

But not many steps towards applying and growing 

The purpose of knowledge is not mental exhaustion

It's uplifting the deflated sense of purpose and self

It's elevating action to include the world and it's strife

One third self, one third family, one third humanity

The perfect equation for balance and success

The path of moderation means learning is only the first step

Thereafter comes an intention: the plan

Last part is the execution: the action

We don't live in a time where knowledge is scarse

We live in a time where hearts are bear

The minimum is our maximum

And beyond that it becomes suicidal or Prozac viable 

Too much "self" and too little of "who else?"

There's more to life than 9-5, board games and self invested cries

We need to rise above this need to be "something"

And aim to be giving, for our purpose dictates such

.... It's so easy to be distracted by our "to do" list

Our personal check lists

Yet the reality of our condition remains, we are on a waiting list...
