Advice to My Younger self

On this planet called Earth

you need to grow with self-worth

it can be added to you

it can be taken away

you will make mistakes

have the strength to be great

don't live with hate

but appreciate

the many wonders

the many splendours of life

it can seem full of strife

so what do you do

when you have no clue

of what direction to turn

and lessons to learn

when you stumble

be humble

accept a hand

no man is

an island

you will always have a choice to make

be mindful though of what's at stake

work hard - play harder life can be short

have integrity…

keep truth in your heart - from the start

keep your friends close

keep your frenemies closer

rise above negativity

tell yourself everyday

I’m believing in me

have sympathy

use empathy

with all of mankind

until you’ve walked a day in their shoes

you are walking blind
