We can’t give an opinion when we refuse to hear what others have to say.
We can, however, brim with promise when it comes to loving and living in a particular way.
We can think of what our parents did or did not do.
We can speak encouraging words to others
Although trials and troubles may ensue.
Most of our parents did the best that they could do. And they left great legacies for you and I to pursue.
We don’t have to follow the blueprint exactly
To accomplish what you intend to do.
We can record the mystery and study for enlightenment. Why?
So that we an share the value of change just a generation at a time.
We can allow each other to know and love and embrace and show the value of being kind.
Time serves as a puzzle-solver if we just understand
To do our part and make a new start
Be inventive and make an alternative plan.
There are those who commenced their lives and had no idea what to do.
But now that they know it seems like it will come closer to being just you.
Closer to not replicate the horrors that we see each day.
Closer to breaking cycles that speak to us in a vicious way.
From teen pregnancy to child abandonment
To low self-esteem and failed expectations.
It’s created a very difficult place for us to be
A horrible love song.
For we took the time and began to identify those things that we thought we had done in love.
Attitudes and arguments that we said are how we approach our day.
But there is a new and a different way.
Conversation that leads to understanding,
Citing words that bring comfort and erase hurt are valued more.
We should begin to open ourselves up and be transparent, be an invisible door.
Not putting up shades that would keep others out as they attempt to shine in our lives each day.
Being unafraid to change who we are so that we can move in a special way.
Here we find our lights that have come on inside our heads
That tell us things that can and cannot be true.
So we need to understand how our heads are fed. Where do we get the value system that we have followed till this day?
What do our friends encourage us to do and what are we going to do special today?
How will we not be children of yesterday living as adults as we analyze and think about what we’ll do? Whose lives will we touch and change because we want to be a better me and you.
Here we are thinking of the cycle of love that has come our way.
Make sure you make the best of it,
Don’t hurt yourself in any way.
Most of all don’t hurt others either
For they are depending on your love and understanding to be true.
Break the cycle, change who you are, be the best of you.
Let others be able to understand that they can count on you too.
For when you do your best it shows the world the possibilities for all of us to do. Peace.
