Getting it Right

I know the wrong I do and
how to correct
I take the time to ferret out
and to dissect
It is the way I keep things
in perspective
Following Creator's plan
on how to live
Whenever I fail to examine
my daily actions
I find myself drifting away
into distractions
Before I know it I'm doing
nothing right
Because I let myself derail
and lose sight
When I return to the comfort
of the right road
I'm immediately aware of how
it lightened my load
Living a good life is a challenge
that takes insight
When we face up to the truth
we will get it right


ET

Amen, you're so right Eileen, we have to be very cautious or we can be misguided and then it appears to be norm. A sincere, great write!

E.T.,

I always say: God allows U-turns. Thank Him for His grace, trust me, I do. Not worthy, but He thought so...an excellent write.

Dear ET, as long as our eyes are open and we are awake
it is never late to get rid of the false and the fake

Timely Inspirational poetry, Eileen. This morning here, two Christian missionaries were shot to death in Denver, Colorado. It was a training school for young Christian missionaries. It is so sad that our nation has come to this...and just a few hours after this, a congregation coming from a Church in Colorado Springs, Colorado, in close proximity to where I live, seventy miles from the shooting in Denver, were shot right outside the church. Organized religion has pissed off many people in many different venues to include internet websites. Elizabeth Lucas-Taylor's blog today is the blog to read...be well, Eileen...Happy Holidays to you and your family...Blessed Be.

Love Always,
Sage

Good concise poetic message of self-unfoldment. And with your usual, balanced, stylistic control. Only comes when you do so much of this as you do.

enjoyed the perspective, it is when we remain present in each moment...and not allow our minds to wander us around in the past or future, we are present with the creator...thanks Eileen
