Good Enuf

• What is a topic you would like to explore with the Holy?
• What is challenging, distracting, boring you now?
• What gives hope, courage, motivation now?
• What would help?
• What can you do to move on?
  
  Such were the leads for a journaling exercise. We had been coached at using repetition as a means of driving deeper, or shading meanings, or pestering, or whatever else repeated phrases do to the human (and divine?) psyche.

  Good enuf is good enuf.
  Just make your bed and go.
  Good enuf is good enuf ~
  Say "no" when your heart means "no."
  
  Good enuf is good enuf
  if it steps you toward your goal.
  Good enuf is good enuf
  as you're climbing out of a hole.
  
  Good enuf is good enuf,
  bumping to-do's into "already done."
  So good enuf is good enuf,
  child. Go on and have some fun!
  
  ... and so I did. LHC <><
