Thoughts
Thoughts in my head
They come and they go
Some I react
Some – I say no
What do I choose?
What chooses me?
A neurological dilemma?
Absolutely
Emotions emerge
Thoughts magically appear
Behavior follows
Consequences – O dear
When the pain of staying the same
Exceeds the pain of change
A new path is followed
Life gets rearranged
The habits you created
Created you
Who would have thought?
Who would have ever knew
I’m a product
Perception – my reality
The way I see the world
Is what I believe about me
Strange
Interesting
Fascinating
True
I think I know me?
Actually – I’m not sure that I do?
We’re all a reflection
Of all that we have thought
All of the things that we do
And all the things that we ought
So clarify the thoughts
The behavior will be new
The consequences will change
New thoughts - new you
