Ever wondered


Ever wondered how your life would be if you were born in a different family from the one you are in?
Ever wondered how your life would have ended up if you made different choices in the past?
Ever wondered what would have happened if you handled a past situation differently?

Would things still end up how they are now?
Would I still become the person I am today 
If I made different friends from the ones I have?
Is my life a written permanent script that cannot be changed?

More questions without answers
More wondering
But does it all matter?

Well stop wondering
For that's the past
We are now in the present
Looking forward to the future
So let by gones
Be bye gones

If you lost your entire self
Well pick up yourself
Stop lamenting and complaining
And start to rebuild yourself
Make the present and future you
Better than the past you

If you lost a part of you
Well use what is left of you
To fix yourself
To become a new being
Better than the broken you

If you have been looking at one side of the coin for too long
Well it is time to flip the coin and view the other side
For it may be prettier than the one you are used to
Or of more value and worth

If you have been concentrating on the pain and the hurt
Well it is time you concentrated on repaying pain and hurt with love
Disappointment and disapproval with acceptance and more love
For love is the answer

Smile when insulted
Pray for the one who plans evil against you
Help the one who wouldn't help you
Do all these with love in your heart
For their benefit and positive gain
Not for yours
Let their joy and their happiness
Be your joy and happiness

Offer a flower to the broken hearted as a sign of new hope
Rejoice at the successes of others
Feel the pain at the failure of others
Do all these without malice
For their pain is your pain
For their failure is your failure
For their success is your success

Stop wondering
Start living
Accept your past
Accept your present
Work towards your future
