Why I Am Here

At the Planet Gym embodying my best business when suddenly I wonder Why am I here? repeats and repeats in my wandering ear And what magic might appear Isn't that *****? Not WHY am I here with these Straight People because this overpopulated question may obscure other quieter ambidextrously resourceful directions less shaded by fear of robust diversity I suppose But, what can I hear about why am I here? and not over There on the Other side What two-sided relationships would I need to become fully here today? and all seasons yet to arrive in this sacred home of People Plants and PlanetEarth With gratitude, I suppose... but, Why am I here again? Cannot mean only those purposes and means asso-sedated with my home address and sometimes needy sometimes hostile [downright spankin mean] neighbors More creature comforts, certainly AND we search for sacred meaning inside more intimate Spiritual enlightenment perhaps shyer, timid early childhood Loser-Trauma Drama messages win/lose valuable Vulnerable communications with imperfect win/win transparent closets Hiding chronic stress histories of anxiety longing for sacred peace, or even just a secular piece, you know, now and again For chronic stress, anxiety Longing for peace or restored ego-resiience, or at least a restored recliner Happiness, and a marketable craft and EarthMother teaching skills For relearning happiness in hope, joy in anticipation, gratitude for opportunities to co-invest in always interesting neighbors In the Planet Gym mindbodying our best health business.
