Looking Back To the Future
Upon reflection looking back
Being I as a person as you yourself are
The past is a mixed bag no matter
who you are
It wasn't all good likewise I couldn't
have been all that bad either
Especially when it comes to the bad
they more than any other probably
weren't
And the older I get and more life experience
I gain over time using golf as a metaphors
to explain in actual reality is this
If I went for a lesson and someone of
me thereafter enquirer taking the time
me to ask
What if anything of any value did you
indeed learn or were you taught from
your coach today
Well the 1 thing that stood out that
made perfect sense which I kind of
in fact already knew
Was when he instructed me to
lighten my grip as I am holding on
way to hard and I also need to relax
as I am far way to tense
And when it comes to going with the
flow and getting into the swing of things
Everything becomes so much easier and
flow's more naturally once we ourselves
accept and rather choose to follow the
path of least resistance
And acceptance as such doesn't actually
mean you have accepted the fact that
whatever has happened actually has
But rather what acceptance actually
means is until you truly actually accept
in the most literal sense
There is no possiblity you can in fact
actually move on or forward
