Running From Yourself

Running from yourself
Fast furiously and completely
Running farther than you ever did before
Resolving to change yourself into a better person
Deciding to show love to your fellow man
All seven days of the week not only your Sabbath
Running back quickly to lick your wounds
When people did not give you anything but doubt
Word of advice.  You are with the wrong people.
