Soul Search

Do you react to most things as if they were “Major?”
And yet, they are really in a minor key.
Throughout all your life you must chose “either/or”
And decide, constantly, your philosophy.

Have you stopped blaming someone else
For your own faults and fears,
And then admitted to what you had done?
When you have learned the secret of not living with lies,
A real job in your life will have begun.

Are you reaching for something
That may not exist,
Except deep within your soul?
While you try to convince your
Loved ones of this,
That yours is “the important goal.”

Is your personal opinion of such high esteem
That you feel you are always right?
Think back for a while, remember, and see
That that attitude – usually- results in a fight.
