"Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you." ~Ralph Waldo Emerson


Poem Artwork

You are somebody and what body might that be?
It depends upon you as to what is ‘the you’ that others see
Look deep within your heart, soul and mind
Identify what is there for you to find
If you dwell on anger then wrath will reign
So ask yourself, “What do I gain?”
Hateful thoughts are unloving and unkind
Search your soul and see what you find
You have dominion over your meditations
You can control your wants and inspirations
It is you that chooses these aspirations
So don’t dwell on thoughts of anger or hate
For hating is contagious and being hated thus becomes your fate
Choose the ‘you’ that reflects the love of Jesus, our Lord
Be a witness each day to his holy word

"Hating is contagious"--yes, it is. Let us not dwell in anger. Well said, Lew.
