I wonder what life would feel like if I were like the robins? Singing for pleasure, working for food and otherwise just hanging out - relaxed and cheerful?
I think I might be happier.
It's ambition that gets in the way. Ambition and my compulsion to always be doing something.
I feel like I ought to be somebody. And I have lived most of my life feeling like I have something to prove.
Well, I'm me - Profound, eh? - and I think I'm finally growing up to the point where I can accept that seeking fame and fortune is not going to get me where I want to be.
Better I should seek to be relaxed and cheerful.
Just like the robins.
