Don't worry, just be!

You cannot win,
You silly thing,
In your hobbies.

You don't do things,
to be better than the rest,
you do them because
of the peace it gives you
and the sense that
you are doing your best.

Don't compete
with the machine
for it is the beast
that excels in winning
the competition,
and so when
you do win, somehow maybe,
the taste of victory
will be short
and unsatisfying,
and instead you will
have drunk the poison
of dissatisfaction
and agony.

Live, love, live
and enjoy the little things
that will bring
you joy...
But don't rush to jump
into joy,
because remember
it is not a competition,
and the machines
will have you beat
there too...
in your quest
to find joy
the quickest.

What you must do,
is live, and love
and just be
and create the best
memory.
