In my teens I knew little and I was shy;

I kept my mouth shut and I WAS HAPPY.

In my 20’s and 30’s I gathered knowledge;

I was passionate about things;

I spoke out and argued with people…equally passionate;

I WAS NOT HAPPY.

In my 40’s I learned about The Law of Attraction;

I wanted everyone to know about it.

I tried to share it with everyone I knew…

Not everyone was ready; I was met with resistance and disappointment. I WAS NOT HAPPY.

Now in my 50’s I am going to try

To shut my mouth and instead just BE HAPPY.

Maybe this is wisdom; maybe this is enlightenment?
