( Self admission about my life mission.)

I admit


To some f 'd up s-it


I use to be mean to me


Because I couldn't really see


My own good heart


Right from the start


It was always there


And I did care


But I didn't treat myself fare


A bad sin


Is not being your own friend


I use to drank alcohol


Then I would fall


End up down


With only a frown


Then again act like a clown


After years of this same type behavior


I finally prayed to my savior


My answer back


Knocked me back


To reality


My love for my fellow man


Is my love for me


If I treat you too mean


I treat myself too mean


We all have feelings


How can you watch another suffer


And not suffer yourself


Oh, the pain may be on another


But the boomerang returns


Then it be your turn to burns


I'm not being a mean jerk anymore


I may not like you


But I'm not going out of my way to hurt you


I'm going to pray


That you see the light


Then act right


If that don't work


I'm simply going to


Stay out of your way


As the phone advertisement goes


"reach out and touch someone."


Not in anger anymore for me

Grady, this is really a nice way to live your live and mine also. I agree with you on this, and I hope I can live this philosophy. Bill
