Do what you like. <br />Do it with devotion. <br />Perfecting what is done... <br />With heartfelt emotion. <br />Unknown to anyone. <br />Keep focused and honest. <br />Maintain your integrity. <br />Defend your creation with dignity. <br />Never become offended, <br />By lack of compliment! <br />Remember... <br />You are doing what it is you like. <br />Whether or not your good deeds are accepted... <br />Why should you care...? <br /> <br />Who ties your shoes? <br />Or brushes your teeth? <br />Who has to get from point A to B? <br />Whether openly or discreet! <br /> <br />Is what you do done to impress? <br />Or... <br />Address who it is that you are? <br />And this is shown to whomever you meet! <br /> <br />You can confuse this if you wish. <br />You will not be alone! <br /> <br />And if you do what you like, <br />Since that is who you are. <br />And all your life this has been expressed. <br />Regardless of who or what brought you times of unhappiness. <br />Establish who you are. <br />It is a priceless feeling... <br />To know oneself. <br />And not to be compromised with that to comprehend.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
