Advice I Haven’t Quite Followed
Know what’s good for you.
Be the kind of a friend who can follow through,
And the ways you could offer some help,
Though you may not get much return.
Always consider what there is to be learned
Not just from the hand you’ve been dealt.
Who am I to say
How to live your life as you pass on your way,
When I’ve struggled so hard to manage my own.
Our patterns revolve,
And to break through, somehow we must get involved:
None of us makes it alone.
That’s how it seems,
But what you’ve got to do to reach your dreams?
It’s a process that’s got to be yours.
It’s not advice that I’ve completely followed.
Commitment is always so hard to swallow!
Still, I would like to open some doors.
