[I must learn to love the fool in me-
the one who feels too much,
takes too many chances,
wins sometimes, loses often,
lacks self control, loves and hates,
hurts and gets hurt,
promises and breaks promises,
laughs and cries.
It alone protects me against that
utterly self-controlled, masterful tyrant
whom I harbor and who would rob me
of human aliveness, humility, and
dignity but for my fool.]
