Change Course

A stream through the Highlands near the coast of northwest Scotland. 

Change Course
7/21/10

Most mornings I adapt
to thoughts, feelings presented
often contrary to plans
made the previous evening,
and that's a luxury
many people don't have,
or exercise, for happiness,
it's called 'claiming power',
being one's own boss
no matter society's constraints
plus ideas we entertain
about other people's judgments,
even our own inside,
yet when internal compass
is set True North,
toward Source of Joy,
then anticipation brings courage
for peering Unknown, boldly
instructing I change course.
