Quotes & Context
“You must do the thing you think you cannot do.”- Eleanor Roosevelt
I don't think
I could hurt you
intentionally,
or murder someone
in cold blood.
I don't think
I could be a soldier
but I am glad that
there are those
that feel so called.
I can't seem to
do my taxes
but time will
change that.
I know.
I know
I'm taking it
out of context.
Some are afraid
of success,
or going out
into the unknown,
speaking in public,
pick your fear
of personal choice...
To do the hard thing
Like when your child
Is an addict
And you have to let them
Hit bottom.
To go on
After your spouse
Has died
& love again.
You never know
When something you say
Will be quoted
Or how it will be taken
In or out
Of context.
Our duty
Is to say
Whatever the Divine
Urges us
To…
How it is taken
Is up to you.
