Troubled minds lead to troubled hearts and troubled lives, <br />So clear your mind and rewind and start from the top, <br />Choose your next words carefully as they decide the next few minutes, or hours or maybe even years <br /> <br />Troubled minds lead to fearful hearts and fearful steps, <br />Clear your path and follow your inner core, your Inner self, <br />Before you fight with your neighbour, fight with yourself, <br />Can I change this or should I accept it? Is what you should be asking <br /> <br />Troubled minds lead to tearful nights and uncertain decisions, <br />Me, myself and I is where it all starts, Love you before you can ‘Love thy neighbour’, <br />Remember, nobody knows you better than you, tell them who you really are <br /> <br />Troubled minds lead to closed gates to focus and determination, <br />The only two raw materials to success, in the real world at least, <br />Be on the constant lookout for a reason to smile and clear your mind <br /> <br />Troubled minds lead to blindness of the soul, <br />A blindness that can consequently miss everything good walking right in front of you, <br />Take control even at the worst of times, you are NOT in the worst situation, trust me on that <br /> <br />Troubled minds lead to unfruitful thinking, and unfruitful contemplating, <br />Life will push you just that extra bit harder to the ground, <br />That’s when you dust up and pat life on the shoulder and say ‘here I go again’, <br />Identify the ‘wrong’ from afar, that way you will always hold the ‘right’ next to you like a shadow, <br />Life will make sure get back up as hard you went down, <br />Clear your mind; clear your heart, clear soul, you deserve it <br /> <br />Jimmy Mang’anda<br /><br />jimmy manganda<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/troubled-minds-2/
