Getting What You Desire
Shall it be known,
That each man gets
What he desires.
From the achiever
To the sloth.
No man becomes a sloth
Who does not desire to be.
No man becomes an achiever
Who does not desire to be.
An ear that is directed
To the advice of the world
Is an ear that hears lies.
An ear that hears lies
Propels a body
Toward actions that bring failure.
He who works hard
Out of principle
Invites failure.
He who functions from a place
Of following notions and tenets
Invites sorrow and struggle.
He who requires a push today
Will require another push tomorrow.
He who requires a prescription for the first step
Will require more prescriptions
For subsequent steps.
He who values the world
Listens to the world.
He who listens to the world
Acts according to the world.
He who acts according to the world
Gets what the world gets.
The overwhelming majority of the world
Fails and struggles
For their entire life.
If failure and struggle
Is what one seeks,
Then it is logical
To listen to the world.
In all things
That a man hears,
If he is wise,
He will consider the source.
If a man’s heart is pure
There is wisdom in lending an ear to it.
The world celebrates desire
And the chase to fulfill it.
It values the chase.
It values hope.
Thus it espouses the tenet
Of hoping
And chasing
Forever.
Truth
Has never existed
In the world.
It exists
Only in the rare few
Who value it
More than they value
The world.
Namaste.
