Scattered Leaves

This is where I will be posting old stuff that I have written. these are songs, poems, and ideas collected over the past 25 years.

 

CHOICES:

Many times our lives are filled with hurt, regret, or even sadness simply because of someone we allowed to briefly flit through our lives. We later realize that we should have held onto them more dearly. Many of the people that we let pass through our lives and are now gone have touched our soul in some type of way and we realize that we have developed an attachment to them. More often than not, we seem to have a few who come into our lives and drop anchor to become a permanent fixture in our day to day existance that we really did not want, need, or really even love that much. the ones we need the most or who have taken a piece of our heart with them are somewhere else alone or with someone else living the same kind of unhappy existence that we are.

 

WHATS WRONG WITH ME:

Whats wrong with me? I wonder just how people have asked themselves or someone else this exact question over the centuries. I also have to wonder just how many of those people have found the answer. For those of you who have yet to determine the proper response or answer to this aged old question, I have good news for you. I am going to answer it for you. “How can you know whats wrong with me when you dont know who I am or without getting to actually know me”? you may ask . The answer is quite simple. whats wrong with you is going to be the exact same thing wrong with 99% of all humans who ask the same question. The real question is “Do you know yourself”? Do you truly know who you are? The few who actually know who they are have buried this persona and have decided on a chosen facade to hide behind in hopes of gaining popularity with a chosen group of people who are all wearing the same mask as they just created. The problem is not being true to yourself. When you simply step out of the role you play in order to gain friendship, and be who you are you tend to make friends who actually enjoy the same facets of life that you do.
