A poem I wrote about a year ago that I thought I would share…

The Human Mind

How does it decide when to love and when to hate

How does it decide the time to be good and the time to be bad

How does it decide to be nice versus being mean

What makes us happy and yet sad at the same time

What does it remember and what does it try to forget

What makes it tick and what makes it think

Are we devious by nature or is it our minds

Are we responsible for our thoughts or is it our mind that we blame

Are we what we think, or are we,what we are made to think

Do we control the mind or does the mind control us?

If we could control our minds would we want to be able to?

Would we want to choose right against wrong

Would we be strong enough to make the choice

The choice could be harder than we imagine

Mind : The all-powerful tool

A tool that so many of us waste..

If we could control and choose to control ,

Maybe just maybe we and this world would be a better place!

Here’s hoping to leave this world a better place than we came into….
Would like to end this with a quote from Buddha which gives us a lot to think about… ~~” All wrong-doing arises because of the mind. If the mind is transformed can wrong-doing remain?”~~
