All I Need

All I need is connection.

A person, place,

A thing

To gain perspective from.

All I need is to observe.

To be engaged,

Connect,

Reflect,

And try to understand.

All I need is to listen.

To be attentive,

Mindful,

Insightful.

To be guided by others.

All I need is to build upon myself.

To be an observer in life,

Not a participant.

Because one day we’ll look back

And the little things

Will be the big things

That we can’t get back.

All I need,

Is to connect.
