Day in, and day out, morning, noon,
We all make choices, now and again.

These choices are a big, big,part,
Of who, and what we are.

Think about your choices, before,
Not after, you make them.

This may save, quite a lot
Of suffering, after that choice.

On your own mental state,
As well, as all those affected,

By your possible, selfish choices,
And the deep need, for gratifacation.

In the end, do you wind up, betraying
Another, or is it yourself you betray?

Solid, good friendship, is hard to find,
Worst yet, to lose a friendship burns deep.

So, unless, there is no reality,
Decide wisely, as you make your choices.

As I look over the rim of my tea cup,
I see you stroll in, with such a flair.

You sit down at a table, not too far,
From where I am drinking my tea.

Our eyes meet for a scant moment,
And lock, as we both stare.

We hold each other's gaze, easily
For more than, a few seconds of time.

In that time frame, we both send,
The same message, "I'd like to meet you."

You order, you ponder, you rise,
Coming over, to where I am sitting.

My heart flutters a bit, I try,
To lower my gaze, but my body invites.

You speak, asking a nonsense question,
I answer, and the next words from you,

Are lost in the beating, of my heart.
You sit down, after I acquiesce.

And we talk and talk, about nothing at all,
Then we talk and talk, and talk, endlessly.

Always try to put your
best foot, as well
as your best face,
forward.

Laughing, is a one of
the best exercise.

Luck is sometimes what
you make happen.

No one can make you feel
inferior, unless you give
them permission.

Smile, it will not
hurt your face.

All the way home,
To a place of
Serene peace.
Where the darkness,
No longer threatens.

All the way home,
To that safe place.
Where a smile awaits,
And a hug, pulls you close.

All the way home,
To such joyfulness,
And the good feeling,
That all is well.

All the way home,
To the very space,
Where you found yourself,
In the very first place.

If at first you
Don't succeed,
Why not,
Reassess!
