do not sabotage

You are comfortable now; but do not forget
what hunger felt like. You are warm now
because you have been cold. You are whole
because you have been in pieces, and you decided
to rebuild. In a decade perhaps you will be
even more full, in need of so much less.
But do not forget the days when you were cold,
and tired, and alone. Those are the days
that taught you how to be alive.
