Remember Who You Are

Why can’t you just be happy?

She said to herself like she meant it

Your mission should you choose to accept it

Is to live in a state of contentment

How do I get there you ask?

It seems an insurmountable task!

The time is now to make it your business

To practice the art of forgiveness

Why carry the weight of your heavy heart

When you can set that burden down?

Observe the memory then set it aside

For all that exists is right now

To reach a state of grace

Is indeed the highest station

Getting there requires continued

Introspect and supplication

Gratitude when practiced daily

Will change your life in every way

As only the things that you just can’t touch

Can make you feel so much

Don’t you know your future will be

Exactly as you imagine it?

Only you can change your mind

If you have complete control of it

You won’t have to wait too long

Or struggle to see that far

Everything will come back in line

Once you remember who you are
