Listen to poem:
Choose Carefully Your Battles
Choose carefully your battles
Not everything is worth a fight
Pick what matters the most
Leave all the rest behind
Fight with your heart and your soul
Carry yourself with pride
Be fair and accept your mistakes
We are only humans,
not right all the time...
Be careful with the words that you say
They can hurt more than a gun
A wound in the flesh can heal
A wound in the soul,
not so much...
Be truthful to yourself and believe
Your actions can change the world
If not the whole world, at least
The world of the person you love
Take your days one at a time
Give yourself time to breathe
Don't be too harsh on yourself
You also deserves to heal
Care for your wounds, for your soul
Give yourself love and praise
The light that you spread in the world
Must shine brighter inside of yourself
