I invite you to consider your life
and see how long you can make a list
of things worth knowing.
Here follows my list
which I am creating on the spot,
right here, right now.
So you might stop reading until you have
composed your own list
to keep me from influencing you.
1) The most important thing I consider to be
worth knowing is mindful, attentive, awareness
of each moment that is here/now.
The next most important things that I find to be
worth knowing are our original nature,
and our inherent virtuosities--the things we do best,
and enjoy/love doing most.
The next would be knowing what's what,
what's happening
and what is called for in response
in each situation as it arises.
Additional things worth knowing in no particular order are:
Where I stop and you start.
What is my business and what is not my business.
What is worth my time and what is not worth my time.
How to recognize, access, realize, trust and follow
my intuition,
my body's felt sense,
and my nighttime dreams
through all the situations
and circumstances of my life.
If I had all these things going for me,
I think I would have what it takes
to do right-enough by my life
in the time left for living
to be proud of what I'm doing
and to enjoy doing it.
Reserving the right to know more things
as they occur to me as being important
from here on out.
