A Reflection On Attitude

I am less than insightful,
Perhaps a little spiteful,
When something I have done
Has not turned out stupendously.

I know I should be grateful,
Instead of being hateful,
Some efforts have succeeded most
Extraordinarily.

If I could be insightful,
Then that would be delightful.
I'd be an inspiration
To the people that I see.

So...

I'll find illumination
In every situation
And use the knowledge that I find
To make the most of me.

Mavis asked, "Am I a ghost again? I don't remember being a ghost, but I know I was." Do you believe in reincarnation?
