968. My three friends

```

When I try

To deliver myself

From my strong and lengthy

Self-complacency,

My ignorance-friend

Calls me

An impossible fool;

My wisdom-friend

Calls me

A great wise soul;

My Perfection-Friend

Calls me

A true lover of Light,

A true builder of Truth,

A true fulfiller of God.
