Analysis of On Becoming You

Now is the time to begin.
Begin your search from deep within.
Life will make more sense
If you stop all pretenses.

There is so much for you to choose,
What do you have to lose?
There are many possible ways to be,
Just open your eyes and see.

Take a chance, make a turn,
It’s the only way you’ll learn.
Never give up on all ways of being,
Open up to a better way of living.

You are surrounded by life’s attractions,
Be rid of your expectations.
Never be afraid to discover the difference,
As long as it makes sense.

You can’t have everything.
You can’t do everything.
You can’t be everything.
Try to be all will only make you disappear.
