34. Try, you shall succeed

You may not reach Heaven
    At a single bound,
    But
You can reach God without fail
At a single bound.
Try, you shall succeed.

You may not please Heaven
    All at once,
    But
You can please God without fail
    All at once.
Try, you shall succeed.
Sri Chinmoy, The Golden Boat, part 9, Vishma Press, New York, 1974
