Carefree Carpe Diem

Concern yourself with what you are, not what you cannot be.
Appreciate your world and of it: think, hear, feel, taste, and see.
Remind yourself of all you have, and to which others may aspire.
Perspective will help confirm if you have no need to try climb higher.
Especially when gurus ever insist we have to ‘seize the day’.
Discontented try to never be, and feel you can't where you are stay.
If no drive to change then don't; if so, pursue what may present.
Enjoy the part you play, assume your progress is as meant.

Make what you can of every day; it's then carpe diem spent.
