The first definition of power in the dictionary goes like this, "ability to do or act." Then in parenthesis it has, (lobsters have the power to grow new claws.) Well, we're not lobsters but it would be nice to be able to grow new limbs. Humans have a highly intelligent brain, we may not be able to grow new limbs but we can put our brains to work positively. The problem is, some let negativity, life and others control their brains.

Power taken,
is weakness forsaken.
In the crowd,
very few are truly proud.
Many are very negative,
very few strong positive.
Join the negative group,
end up in the chicken soup.
Join the positive few,
end up making the stew.


Hanging with negative minds,
keeps on the dark blinds.
Daring in a different sight,
enhances power of might.
The ones of "I can't do."
may end up in the stew.
Those who go down trying,
may end up positively defying.


Nothing in life is hardly given,
power has to be strongly taken.
In an untrained brain,
there maybe a negative drain.
A brain in control,
keeps a stronger hold.


Strong mental abilities,
equal powerful possibilities.
We're all unequal in mind,
but we all possess some power of kind.
Tapping into this strength,
takes tough will in length.
Not negatively accepting,
equals positivity adapting.

Grady, this brought this song to my mind: "First you say you do and then you don't, you're undecided now but what are you gonna do?" Sort of like in our everyday life. We can try to do the positive, or the negative will naturally pull us down. But one thing for sure, to do the positive we have to make the right decisons, don't we. Bill
