if it were quantifiable,

perhaps, it could be said as such:

2 cups of experience

a tablespoon of knowledge (or will a teaspoon suffice)

1/3 cup of amusement

2 tablespoons of reality

a sprinkling of mundaneness (to soften the blow of)

3 cups of friendship

1/2 cup of mystique

4 tablespoons of time spent dreaming

and mayhaps, the most essential of all,

5 cups of naivety

for all that we do not know

is a thousand chances for all that could be

if it can be thought as much.
