Making an Effort Confront a Challenge

PRINT

by Sy Dorfman

It’s never too late to change my old way
Will I do it tomorrow or should I do it today.

So what do I do when my spirit is so low
If I do something uncomfortable, will that make my spirit grow?

But then I’m missing out on pleasures that make my day bright
So how do I weaken that habit to make my day seem right.

Let me push it away and enjoy a good time
But what happens when it’s over and I find out that the pleasure isn’t mine.

If it’s really that important to observe a weakness that I see
Can that be the answer to the way I want to be.

I have to feel proud that I conquered a fear
Something I could not do year after year.

So when I am tempted and attacked for my lust
I really have to say that observing myself is a must.

Will that make me proud if my vision is clear?
If it’s happening as I see it the only thing that could stop me is yielding to fear.

So if I can make an effort to confront going against that tempting mind
There is absolutely no doubt that happiness I will find.

As a result I will see a big difference in the way I want to feel
And then I will know that THIS is what is real.
