Life Is About Choice
I read on the internet,
The words of an esteemed doctor,
life is about choice,
you can't blame your parents,
you can't blame the government,
you are to blame for your life,
you make the choice's,
that make your life,
A little girl,
went up to the pope,
why does god allow,
children to be hurt,
India has children,
working in coal mines,
as young as eight or nine,
father's selling kids as slave's,
You can blame the parent,
you can blame the government,
little children abused and used,
deprived of a education,
become adults,
that can, blame their parents,
that can blame the government
children that didn't have a choice
granted that in life
many choose not to try
many a child, blame's the parent,
when in truth,
it is their own lack of effort,
their own bad choice's,
yet the answer is never,
black and white,
parents are not perfect,
we make mistakes,
we have faults,
but going around in a circle of blame,
helps no one,
life is not,
black and white
sometimes it's a shade of grey,
granted faults lie with the parents,
faults also lie with the children,
yet change is best affected on the self,
set yourself small steps,
steps aimed, at overcoming the problem,
can't read that's a problem,
learn to read that's the solution,
to shy thats the problem,
learn to talk,
thats the solution,
granted life is about choice,
you can learn to overcome,
feeling depressed all the time,
read jokes learn to laugh,
that's the solution,
find away,to stop thinking that way,
blaming people create's anger,
around and around you go,
fighting bickering,
staying on the round about of pain,
granted we can all blame our parents,
blame the people that we loved,
they make mistakes,
find solutions not pain.
your parents didn't give you love,
learn to cuddle your children,
learn to become better than your parents,
life is about change be prepared to change.
