"Do you think you should?" "Do you think you shouldn't?"
"Do you think you can?"
"Is this alright?"
"Is that alright?"
"Is this good enough?"
"Is this better?"
"Don't you think this would be better?"
Oh, just HUSH already!!!
ENJOY!!!

My brain. Think think think. Tick tick tick. Rethink. Re-see. Revise. Forever and ever without end. Amen. Arrrggghhhh!!!
My mouth. By being more careful and let my yeah be yeah and my nay be nay, and leave out the stuff that should never be said.
My luck! The only thing that came across my mind since yesteryear was my luck in everything inclusive my job interviews which never had the chance to go through for the second chance. (finger crossed for the next one)

Critisism.
"Why don't you do it this way?"
"It will be better this way."
"Do that." "No, not like that."
"This way." "No that way."
Others try to tell me what to do, I contradict myself, a persons worst critic is themselves. It's all too true.
Conventional norms. Perhaps then I'd be less mediocre, and I could eventually become the person I'd always hoped I would be.
I declare, I don't need to please
I'm working hard at just being me
So, today's the day, I must declare
It's time I dole out peace to share
I am declaring to be more myself and not care what others think.
Happy 4th!!
