Louiseful Of Grace Poem by Mary Louise Mann Gabumpa

We can only give of what we have,
no more, no less.
Whatever we have is all that
will come out of us.
How depth can we spare,
or are we shallow?

The goal in life varies on what state in life we're on.
The older we are the longer the term we wait to fulfill.
Along the path, are the keys to make it happen.
It's quality really depends on our response;
our response also depends how we stick to the 'Grace'.

Wishes comes in after we feel the gravity of our needs.
When can we know of when to start,
when to hold on and when to let go?
Does the 'let go' means to give up?
what's the point of needing and wishing,
if at the end is just to give up?
Along the path, as we work through, we also wish.
Wish on the 'Grace' that will work in us,
through us and upon us.

Who knows our needs more than us?
Or would we rather say that we really know our needs.
Yes, we have our will.
It's fulfilling to use our will,
it makes us feel that we exist.
But, what makes us whole?
The purpose or our existence is what makes us whole.
Having our will directed to the purpose
is far more than just existing in this world,
which makes us whole.

Choice to will and will to choose
are choices to make in different perspectives in this life.
The truth is there are only the 'seen life' and the 'unseen life'
to choose along the path.
The reality is, the 'seen life' is only temporary
and the 'unseen life' is what you will be,
even in the temporary life, actually living it
and that is the 'power' that cannot be denied
and no one can explain it in this temporary world.
It is not easily given away, though, it's free.
