Looking Out, Looking In

Look in, look out and view a life,
so easy to tell wrong from right.
For yourself you cannot see,
others can say what should or should not be.
You see a path of ones way,
and maybe predict the next day.
When someone tells you right from wrong,
listen, it may keep you strong.
The words of what they see and hear,
may help troubles disappear.
Keep a clear mind from within,
this is looking out and looking in.
