I yearn to be the man in me who celebrates the success of others, to experience true joy in their contribution The man who loves his fellow man from a place of compassion and delight To see them strive in their metier and find one of the many callings that life has to offer Despite myself, despite my insecurities and my jealous tendencies, I wish to see the best in you When one finds the strength to want the best for your enemy, your nemesis, your foe You seek a life of gratitude, love and a content spirit -  the potential in all of us
