Yes Bayfoxman5!

The intrigue is in knowing the imperfect is not imperfection at all.
"Appreciate the steps
The progress"
the one before the other, as it must be. I appreciate this poem, the virtue behind it is salient advise in good times and in bad.

Peace!

Such excellent advice and council on continuing to fight the battle to reach our goals.
As you say, even the dimmest light is after all, a light!
You have helped us to recall that we get what we believe we deserve, and not a bit more...
Hence the lesson here is to believe in our own worthiness. Can you do that?
Yes, you definitely can!
