BY NATURE
By nature, nobody is perfect
everyone makes mistakes; everyone has faults
people will offend you; they will hurt you
everyone can’t please you but everyone can’t anger you
what matters is you and your control over your imperfection
do you make mistakes occasionally?
do you offend and anger people on purpose?
do you commit more evil than good?
have you lost the balance of the being?
Are you now a rose plant without roses just thorns?
By nature, everybody is judgmental
Everyone criticizes what they despise
Everyone speaks against what they aren’t used to
Your subconscious by reflex treats a different skin color differently
what matters is you and your control over this imperfection
that you don’t know doesn’t mean you won’t like
that you aren’t used to doesn’t mean it’s dangerous
learn to see past the color of the being and see the human
do not lose the balance of the being?
are you now a pitohui without the beauty just poison?
By nature, man is many things
Just choose which of those things you are.
