The most important things in life aren't free.
They cost energy. Money isn't the kind I mean.
It takes a lot of energy to dare oneself,
alot to bridge gaps between strangers,
alot to trust that we won't get hurt again,
alot to be confident enough for those in
cushy thrones carrying blackberries and
spitting on the little guy when a leg up
is needed, alot of energy to laugh when
we know it will help a friend who needs
it and yet there's nothing funny about
the situation, alot to forgive, alot to
choose to love with a whole heart and
without terms, alot to take risks that
feel right according to our gut instincts...
But these are some of the only ways
to get rich without the man keeping you
down.
