Some choose to refuse to let go and grow
Dragging their feet and so they go slow

The ones who think they have it figured out
Are the ones I wonder about
What with all those ideas they spout
And all those ideals they tout
Spouting and touting they leave me doubting
Though I understand they think they know
I know they do not no matter what
They do to make it come true it does not

Spouting and touting they start shouting

When their doubting begins to show
Let them come out then and let them doubt
Alongside me as we wonder about
What may or not be figured out
By the maybe of curiosity
Still the ones who think they know will go
On spouting until their doubting is gone
No doubt about it though slow they go on

Spouting touting doubting even so
The ones who think they do but do not know

WE HAVE OUR OPINIONS...OTHERS HAVE THEIRS. WE RESPECT ANOTHER PERSON'S VIEW EVEN THOUGH WE MAY NOT AGREE WITH IT...WE RESPECT THE OTHER PERSON'S RIGHT TO HAVE DIFFERENT VIEWS. WE LIVE IN A COUNTRY WHERE OUR GOD-GIVEN RIGHTS TO 'CHOOSE' SHOULD ALWAYS BE RESPECTED. SO...WHERE YOU MAY THINK OTHERS NEED TO 'LET GO AND GROW', THEY THINK THEY HAVE GROWN AND ARE NOT 'HOLDING ON' TO ANYTHING. THANKS FOR SHARING, STEVEN. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

I take it that we should let go of obsolete ideas and move forward with the ones that make the most sense.
