please remember:
to be caring without expectation
to look over the edge without fear of falling
to awaken with hope, but without an illusion of control
to walk slowly without a sense of time
to love like a fire, without the burn
to understand others without losing yourself
to work hard without hating yourself for failures
to write everything you feel without caring who might read
to let go of anger and jealousy without shedding any tears
to cherish the flowers without picking a single one
to seek new places without a plan
to let things be without wondering why
to climb higher and run faster without pride
please, please remember.
