One of the best poems I know!
An autobiography in five chapters, by Portia Nelson.

The first time I heard it, was through Dr. Wayne Dyer in one of many great speeches he performed.
It went straight to my heart and has been with me for many years now.

I have realized I now live in the 5th chapter.
Can you see in which one you are living?


I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I fall in. I am lost….I am helpless.
It isn’t my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.

I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the side walk.
I pretend I don’t see it. I fall in again.
I can’t believe I am in the same place.
But it isn’t my fault.
It still takes a long time to get out.

I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I see it is there.
I fall in….it’s a habit…but my eyes are open.
I know where I am. It is my fault.
I get out immediately.

I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.

I walk down a different street.
