Mindstorm

Yesterday was hell. I know, I made it so,myself. I took the words that someone said And turned them into a weapon I used against my own person. I couldn't let go, I wouldn't let go. I became stuck in a negative mindstorm. Was the moon in chaos? Had the past lain in wait for just that sentence? I do not know, And won't wait to dissect the reasons I went wrong. Today I will try again, To treat myself and others With more kindness. God knows we all deserve A second chance, or maybe three, Or even four...

7x70=490, the good book said in one day! Ha! maybe, we won't need it that many times in one day for the same thing. God bless you, and I like the way you took credit for knowing it was you own fault you believed what was said, very good write, clear in your point, thanks for sharing, God bless, Moses
