On the Outside Looking In

Life's journey begins and ends with you
Who are we to know when peace and humility needs to be a force reckon with
Who am I to judge
Who am I
Who is this person that resembles me in the mirror
Where is my heart, mind, or soul
How do I learn to love myself and appreciate life's value
And how do lessons of life teach us to be stronger
All I'm saying is stay true to one's self because we tend to neglect our own needs 
to satisfy everyone else's craving.
