Surmise

(To suppose that something is true without having evidence to confirm it) She fought courageously Her battle was arduous; potentially leading to her demise The only impediment to her success Was flawed thoughts, she surmised She obsessively tried to predict the future She desperately tried to avoid all of life's pain The inability to quiet her mind Left her filled with doubt and self shame They say that all of our experiences Are contingent on the world we choose to view If we don't have the experience - the perspective All of our problems accrue You see the strength of our battle Is determined by the strength of one's mind When we clarify and evaluate It's like changing water into wine So, let’s fight the battle courageously Discern the emotions inside The only impediment to our success Is flawed thoughts, don't surmise
