Sometimes you say boldly “I CAN, so I WILL”

But before you ‘DO’ be patient, be quiet, be still.

Instead of telling yourself “I JUST DO NOT CARE!”

Listen out for the voice whispering please … DON’T GO THERE.

Oh I know we all get the urge to try something new

Fulfilling our ‘goals’, big dreams to pursue;

But wait, don’t just dive in, think, take care

If it’s too easy, too shiney, please … DON’T GO THERE.

Don’t be swayed by the wide smiles, the sweet talk & the tricks

Watch out for the con, the lies and the ‘quick fix’.

They’re the ‘tools’ that are used with so much flair

But they can blind us to the truth, so please … DON’T GO THERE.

Ask yourself: “What will this new ‘THING’ bring into my life?

Peace? Happiness? Contentment? or trouble, stress and strife?

Look, if you even think you’re new ‘thing’ could drive you or others to despair

Then leave it, just walk away and please … DON’T GO THERE.
