(Some of my poetry and photography - I hope you enjoy)
Who We Truly Are
We are not our choices
We are not our decisions
We are not our flaws
Or our hindrances
These are just the things that make us stronger
We are not our bad habits
We are not our jealousy
We are not our vindictiveness
Or our envy
These are just the things we must learn to rise above
We are not our successes
We are not our appearance
We are not our possessions
Or our net worth
These are just the things that lie around us
We are not our families
We are not our embarrassments
We are not our humiliations
Or our trespasses
These are just the things that make up the past
We must learn to choose the best path
And we must learn to embrace compassion
We must learn to let go of worldly goods
And we must learn to forgive
In our relationships
And in our casual conversations
In our heart felt talks
And in our empathy
In our antipathy
And in our hearts
We find who we truly are
We are not our choices
We are not our decisions
We are not our flaws
Or our hindrances
These are just the things that make us stronger
We are not our bad habits
We are not our jealousy
We are not our vindictiveness
Or our envy
These are just the things we must learn to rise above
We are not our successes
We are not our appearance
We are not our possessions
Or our net worth
These are just the things that lie around us
We are not our families
We are not our embarrassments
We are not our humiliations
Or our trespasses
These are just the things that make up the past
We must learn to choose the best path
And we must learn to embrace compassion
We must learn to let go of worldly goods
And we must learn to forgive
In our relationships
And in our casual conversations
In our heart felt talks
And in our empathy
In our antipathy
And in our hearts
We find who we truly are
