Power To Choose

People putting up road blocks No way to always avoid them Benefit of the doubt is a burden Becomes effortless to condemn Criticism coming too easy if the System won't align by your design Exasperation firmly entrenched When plans don’t fall into line Our origin story of aggravation Has roots that are tricky to trace Making it hard to hold the space To offer up others proper grace Can’t change who anyone is Can alter your own attitude Lead with acceptance instead Increasing your emotional latitude Start to realize instant irritation Is no longer your default state The decision rests in your hands To update how you want to relate
