Comparisons Filled With True Wisdom
It's so easy to look with envy at others
thinking satisfaction can be won
by taking to yourself what they've got
when in the end you don't have fun
Comparing yourself with others
is never such a good idea
for you always are tricked offline
wishing to hear with a wax-free ear
Two days can change a person
for no couple of days are ever the same
yesterday's self always requires better
not to think so never brings you fame
Looking at someone else is not wise
even today it doesn't ring true
for you were made what you are
not as anybody else but just truly you
So compare you truly as you
look upwards move forward being wise
show yourself as one self-approved
others see you as one of the good guys
(Quote:
'Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today.')
