Without you, Howard
I may have forgotten
these ten fingers of mine
are printed like no other.
Like a tree with many sturdy limbs
who has forgotten
that it gives shade to smaller ones
where nests reside holding blue eggs.
Don’t ask what the world needs.
Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.
Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.
– Howard Thurman
