Should one find something
To be zealous about in life?
What does it mean?
To have that spring in your steps
Day in and day out
To jump out of bed each day before
Alarm goes off
To share that zeal with
Fellow believers
To not just think about
Oneself
Even if one finds “The Goal”
To be zealous about
Why does one do it?
To have “lived well” in the eyes of others
To hope to make sense of life
To flee from impermanence of life, or
Is it just something we invented for ourselves
To differentiate us from our primate cousins?
