There’s always a choice
To be happy or sad
Disappointed or mad
To engage or let go
The latter will heal your heart so
Dwell till you’re driven to near madness
Or
Choose joy
It will never steer you awry
Choose independence
You have a voice
Choose forgiveness
Or remain in the realm of anger
Choose empathy
As you will never truly understand what someone else is going through
You are in control
Choose wisely
