Learning from others

When looking to others to learn your own way
It's always important to hear what they say.
The thing to remember is they are not you
So they will not know what really is true.
They have good insight and things you can learn
But you are the one that stands at the stern.
The perspective you have, brings the things that you need.
Be open and happy, the answer is lead.
Lead your own life, just be who you are
And then you will know, you shine like a star.

Life

This life that we live is one that we make
Don't worry and fuss if you make a mistake.
All things are given; you can start where you are,
It's not a long journey; you won’t have to go far.
Quiet your mind, and listen with your heart
Feel grateful and joy; it's the best place to start.

You are where you are, it's good to be you

Wherever you are, is where you should be.
Joy is the answer to all that you see.
So many work hard, they push and they shove
They try to force answers that come from above.
Look to the things that bring joy to your life
This world is not meant to be filled up with strife.
All things you want are meant to be yours
You just have to ask, to begin opening doors.
Now feel all the good that is coming to you.
Be happy and anticipate it really is true.
Joy is the answer when you look deep within.
Find the good things, then you know you will win.
