How Am I?

Have you ever asked yourself “How am I?”

Let me take a deep breath
before I answer out of compulsion.

Let me ask my body before I say
“good” or “bad”! 

Let me ask my organs in my body
before I utter words! 

My body’s response will not be words
“good”, “bad” or “super”!
This is the language of my ego! 

Inquire within, “How am I?”
with patience and care. 

This is not about the “correct” answer
to look good or get sympathy. 

This is an inquiry within from an outside source!

This inquiry is about recognizing sensations in your body
and verbalizing your findings with no judgment!
