Yesterday I was clever.
That is why
I wanted to change the world.
Today I am wise.
That is why
I am changing myself.

Every day there is only
One thing to learn:
How to be honestly happy.

Since each thought
Is an atomic power,
You can give each thought
A diplomatic death.

I Am Not Needed
I am not needed
To say the right thing.
I am only required
To be the right thing.

Miracles Worth Seeing
Only two miracles are worth seeing:
The miracle of loving
And
The miracle of forgiving.
