Confession And Plea

CONFESSION AND PLEA

I confess
I am lost
Please help me

Am I here to teach?
Or else to learn?
Maybe both?

I confess
I am lost
Please help me

Must we always be acting
From our wounded places?
Or first be acting to heal?

I confess
I am lost
Please help me

It is clear you are lost too
Stop being a smartarse
Just be a child, be kind

About Ben Naga

The Spirit that graces me with its passing has no name and stems not from thoughts and words, though it gathers them up as it flows, but from feeling.

  1. Children are not kind
    Yet then can read your mind
    You cannot fool a child 💜

  2. I think most of us have to get lost Ben in order to be found my friend.. And once we find ourselves we ponder how best to follow our hearts.. and ask this same question..
    “Am I here to teach?
    Or else to learn?
    Maybe both?”…

    Loved reading this Ben.. Thank you..
