If not getting a cup of coffee amounts to mental torture, this person has to be worshipped!!

ive found his character to be interesting, although detrimental – in turn, ive read books and spoken to people in order to gain a better understanding but the courage is within oneself – if Gods bought you to it, He can surely bring you through it and i suppose another proverb wouldnt go amiss i.e. burning flame

Look at My Past, See It All the Way Through,
That “Nice Guys Finish Last”, I’m Proof That it’s True,
“Do Onto Others as You Would Have Them Do Onto You”
This Was My Motto, My Outlook, My Constant Point of View.

Being So Generous, Listen, It Doesn’t Pay,
‘Cause When it is your Turn, Believe Me, They’ll Be Looking Away
I am Not Saying to be Evil, or Unkind,
But Try to Protect Yourself, Just Keep It in Mind.

Don’t Be Selfish, But Don’t Be a Fool,
Write Down Your Guidelines, Your Limits, to Use as a Tool,
You Don’t Need to Anaylse…Or Understand,
Just When You’re Screwed Over, Draw a Line in the Sand.

Forgiveness is one Thing, Something We Should Do,
Forgiving and Forgetting, Is Healthier For You,
But Don’t let Things Slide, Because It’s So Easy,
Not Confronting the Person Who Acted So Sleazy.

This Can Create, A Bad Situation,
Setting a Presidence, Giving a Quick Education,
You Teach People, How To Treat You,
What You’ll Put Up With, What You Will Do.

Give Yourself Pride and More Respect,
‘Cause I Guarantee You, You’ve Seen Nothing Yet,
You Don’t Know What They are Capable of Doing,
But Know This, My Dear, You’ll Be the One Hurting.

Anyone Who Does Something, You Wouldn’t Do,
To Them or To Others, Is Not For You,
Don’t Give Them…..The Benefit of the Doubt,
Just End the Relationship….And Get Yourself Out!!

I have written many poems trying to make sense of life and to bring myself some calmness. I read this quote today and I think we would all be better to remember it,

“Love Is The Selfless Promotion of the Growth of the Other”
