I think any spiritual experience that's worthwhile is not about ego and it will humble you in some way. And also, a Zen monk once said to me, 'If you're not laughing, then you're not getting it.'

The Great Gambler
The Gambler stopped a monk
dwelling on spiritual plane,
And exclaimed, "Oh! monk
we both are exactly same
So I think we both of us
deserve equal name and fame.
Monk replied, "Gambler! I put
self not a pelf at stake,
And drink bitter poison
for God's sake
Only fool would say our
lives are same
For you a game is life
for me a life is game.''

Make worthwhile ink of my pen
Amen Allah please amen
Make worthwhile my sweet dreams
Can't you hear my soul's screams?
Make worthwhile my effort
Make me brave in your court
Make worthwhile my labor
Save me O savior

Humble People
Humble people
We both are
We are humble people
We are happy
We have someone that is watching out for us
Humble people
Are much happier than those who have too much
Humble people have little but they are happy
Humble people are rich in spirit
Humble people have more friends
Than those that are rich
We are not so materialistic either
Humble people
Like to enjoy other humble people also
That is the kind of people they mix with
Humble people don’t wear any expensive clothes
Humble people are good Christians
Humble people are hungry for the word of the Lord

Laughing
I'm laughing at your funny face
I'm laughing at this funny place
I'm laughing in my space
I'm laughing at a fast pace
I'm laughing and cannot stop
I'm laughing feeling the bop
I'm laughing at your top
I'm laughing with a cop
My stomach hurts
My cheeks are sore
Yet I want to laugh some more
Just want to laugh day and night
Want to laugh 'cause it feels alright
I'm laughing with Pat
I'm laughing at the cat
I'm laughing at the mat
I'm laughing as the cat sat
Giggle, Giggle, Giggle
Giggle, Giggle, Giggle
Giggle, Giggle.

The great awareness comes slowly, piece by piece. The path of spiritual growth is a path of lifelong learning. The experience of spiritual power is basically a joyful one.

Open your eyes and let em shine !
Everybodys born to do a certain thing
And if youre dead jammy you find it.
And if youre good at it just keep doing it
Until youre fed up then do something else.
Youre here to make babies and look after the place.

Someone Like You
Ive been searching a long time
For someone exactly like you
Ive been travelin all around the world
Waiting for you to come through
Someone like you makes it all worthwhile
Someone like you keeps me satisfied
Someone exactly like you
Ive been travelin a hard road baby
Lookin for someone exactly like you now
Ive been carryin a heavy load
Waiting for the light to come shinin through
Someone like you makes it all worthwhile
Someone like you keeps me satisfied
Someone exactly like you, someone exactly like you
Ive been doin some soul searchin
To find out where youre at
Ive been up and down the highway
In all kinds of foreign lands
Ive been all around the world
Marchin to the beat of a different drum
But just lately Ive realized
Baby the best is yet to come
Someone like you makes it all worthwhile
Someone like you keeps me satisfied
Someone exactly like you makes it all worthwhile
Someone like you keeps me satisfied
Someone exactly like you

We Are
I'm somebody,
So are you.
It doesn't really
matter who.
'Cause just the being
is most freeing.
That makes it
all worthwhile.
So I am I
and you are you.
Because of this
we make up two.
And none can say
in anyway
that both of us
are not worthwhile.

The Sky Is A Gypsy
The first time was the best time
The language you use
You gotta be careful what you will choose
And the first high was the best high
Youre made of flesh and blood
Yet it makes you feel like wood
Oh the first time was the best time
The first line was the best line
Its hard to learn to beware
Spending thousands of pounds in a year
And worthwhile is it worthwhile
Ever wondered why you need more and more
To reach that sky
Oh the first time was the worst time
And the sky is a gypsy
Oh will I die with her with me
Oh the best time is the worst crime
Oh the first time oh may be the worst time
Oh worthwhile is it really worthwhile
When the sky is a gypsy
Oh will I die with her with me
And the sky is a gypsy
Will I die with her with me
Oh no no no no
The first time
Maybe the worst time
Oh no
Will I die with her with me

Filling Up With Heaven
Once there was a vision
Once there was a glow
Once there was a certainty
No chance could overthrow
Hope was scorched by summer
Crushed and beaten down
Once there was a winner
Now there was a clown
Without you life had seemed so
But now im
Filling up with heaven
Without you life had
Seemed so hostile
Filling up with heaven
But maybe with you its all worthwhile
Now Im filling up with heaven
No baby no baby no baby no
Filling up
No baby no baby baby baby no
Filling up
No baby no baby no baby no
No baby no baby baby baby no
All the fortune that my
Luck had brought
It couldnt even make me smile
Without you life had seemed so
A lonely hideaway my last resort
All achievement infantile
Now im
Filling up with heaven
Without you life had
Seemed so hostile
Filling up with heaven
But maybe with you its all worthwhile
Hey hey hey
As the years had passed by
I became more cynical
All the magic had died
My existence clinical
Ow ow ow ow
But now im
Filling up with heaven
Down down
Down down
Filling up
Without you life had
Seemed so hostile
Down down
Down down
Hey hey hey hey
Filling up with heaven
But maybe with you its all worthwhile
Woah woah woah woah
Now im
Filling up with heaven
Without you life had
Seemed so hostile
Down down
Down down
Filling up filling up
Filling up with heaven
But maybe with you its all worthwhile
Ow ow ow ow ow
Woah woah woah
Now im
Filling up with heaven
Without you life had seemed so
Hostile
Down down
Down down
Filling up with heaven
But maybe with you its all worthwhile
Hey hey hey hey
Without you life had
Seemed so hostile
Down down
Down down
Filling up
But maybe with you its all worthwhile
