Contradictions
First instinct is to second guess
Quick trigger to point the finger
Rigidly pushing against reality
Swiftly pulls us from actuality
Let's not live in subtraction
But add up grace in its place
Replace reject with accept
To embrace all that we face
Our reactions are a choice
Try choosing a positive voice
