5th Thoughts

I've been thinking.
Quite a lot.
I think about my problems.
I think about my flaws.
I think about my mistakes.
My sins and lies.
And every other negative aspect about me.

Then I started wanting.
I started to desire to solve my promblems.
I thought that I could solve all my problems.
In one shot alone.
With strong willpower,
Nothing is impossible.

That's what I thought.


And I was wrong.


I realised with some help from above.
That I shouldn't jump into my problems
And tackle them all at once.
That I would just drown in them.
And struggle to get through.

I have to take a step at a time.
One step at a time.
Solve one before going to another.
And seek help to solve those that I can't solve alone.

A warriors pride and honour,
Keeps him standing in a fight that is already lost.
But he will still admit defeat to his opponent.
A warrior will not be defeated cowering.
He would stand up and fight.

That is the attitude I need.
That's how I need to behave.
To solve these many flaws that I have.
To solve all of them.

A warrior will not think of how to kill all of his opponents in one strike.
Instead he will concentrate on how skilled they are.
On how fast he will have to move to dodge a blow and strike back.
On the amount of time he can last against his opponents.
And how he will have to defeat them all in that amount of time.
And that means priorities.

I need to put what I have to do ahead of what I want to do.


Don't think that just because it is not their burden to bear,
they won't help a friend in need.
A true friend will always be there to lend you a shoulder to lean on.
So don't be afraid to share your problems with a friend.
They will not leave you in the lurch.
For they are those who have put their confidence in you
And the people that you have put your confidence in.
