Whatever you think about the most is going to color your whole life.
Words have power don't forget,
What comes out of your mouth is what you're gonna get.
If you're filled with anger, contempt and unrest,
You must purge it and kill it this is no jest.
If you speak anger, hate and revenge,
This type of thinking, will never avenge,
The pain you once felt and still feel right now.
If you will find peace, put it down and avow,
To think only about the here and the now,
Whatever is worthy and virtue endowed.
Peace is the order from this moment on.
In time you will find that the pain is all gone.
It's that which you think on, how you meditate.
What goes on in your mind will sit and gestate,
Till it finds a way to become manifest,
And affect your whole life in your heart make a nest;
For thoughts are alive but you give them their power.
It's what you allow to grow and to flower.
Whatever you nurture, whatever you feed,
Will take root and grow and produce many seeds.
