Common Choices
Sometimes the most critical reflection,
Resides in your own mirror.
Self doubt cripples all inflicted,
Self confidence is earned daily.
Some must tear others down,
Just to build themselves up.
Some will raise others up,
To share in their glory.
Kindness is a free gift,
Cruelty pays a heavy toll.
Choose a path forward,
Or forever look backwards.
Tomorrow is just another day,
But is guaranteed to no one.
But tomorrow grants the chance,
To wipe the slate clean.
