The Mind
All I need is my mind;
All you is your mind.
For the human mind is the only thing that can
Make something from nothing,
Make light from darkness,
Make good from evil;
For through our minds, we can
Find reasons to live while surrounded by death,
Find hope in a chanceless world,
Find happiness in complete despair.
Thy “idiotic optimism” is thy water;
Thy “false hope” is thy bread.
Please come to the conclusion
That you do not see with your eyes
But with your mind;
That you are not victim to your circumstances
But only to how you choose to perceive them.
Therefore, happiness is a decision…
But it’s not an easy decision,
It’s the hardest and most important decision you will ever make.
But once you make this decision once, you are not eternally saved from the darkness,
You must make this decision
Every time you wake up,
Every time you face conflict,
Every time you breathe.
Every second, we are faced with the decision to either view the world with
Love or fear.
Don’t get me wrong,
I’m not asking you to find contentment while on fire,
But to find the hope and motivation to extinguish it.
When you are faced with a devil,
Do not love what he is,
But love what he can be.
Pray for Satan, someone’s got to, but that’s a whole other rant I have prepared.
Love what is,
And when you can’t (or shouldn’t),
Love what could be.
Love yourself,
And when you can’t (or shouldn’t),
Love the person you always knew you could be.
All you need is intentional perception:
The effort and decision to see things in a new light.
Now go,
Lighten the world up with the superpower we are all born with:
Perception.
Now go,
Use the greatest weapon known to mankind:
Your mind.
