Not my words, but good thoughts
I am afraid of my good habits, for I take them for virtues;
I am afraid of my little efforts, for I take them for progress;
I am afraid of my activities, they make me think I am giving myself;
I am afraid of my clever planning, I take it for success;
I am afraid of my influence, I imagine that it will transform lives;
I am afraid of what I give, it hides what I withhold;
I am afraid of my good habits, for I take them for virtues;
I am afraid of my little efforts, for I take them for progress;
I am afraid of my activities, they make me think I am giving myself;
I am afraid of my clever planning, I take it for success;
I am afraid of my influence, I imagine that it will transform lives;
I am afraid of what I give, it hides what I withhold;
