Mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven…
-John Milton
Choose Wisely, Choose Well
Feed your mind hell
And the hell hole will be
Of your own making
With none else to blame.
Feed your mind good
And the heaven will be
Yours for the asking
With nary a devil in sight.
With the power to choose
Bestowed upon you,
Choose well and wisely
Lest you make a mess
With no redemption in view.
A misstep leads to another,
A folly to another folly
And the blackhole sucks you in
Your enervated soul and all,
There is no coming out of it!
So be on your guard, save your soul
While the time is on your side.
Time is a fickle master,
Don’t let it you forsake.
Board its groovy train,
With good intentions in tow.
Ride into a world of bliss
Forever in its light to glow!
