Array ( [sid] => 59056 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => BE HONEST WITH YOU [time] => 2004-08-05 18:32:41 [hometext] => We all live in a dishonest world. Can you stay true to yourself, no matter what? [bodytext] =>

"BE HONEST WITH YOU!"

Examine your heart deep down.
Can you answer without a frown?
Am I trusting, honest, and kind?
Refined, manners polished and shined?

Or do I look outside of me?
Lying constantly, dreaming, broody?
Do those around me find me moody?
Appearing dishonest, rather greedy?

Examine yourself 'tis not hard.
Search for good and bad in this regard.
Especially be True To You!
Being honest in all you pursue.

Give all that you can.....
Others may not understand.
Should not matter one bit!
With honest-hearted commit!

You only have to live with You.
With a honest heart that's true!
Be honest with your soul.....
Keeping your character whole!

"No man, for any considerable period,
can wear one face to himself,
and another to the multitude;
without finally getting bewildered
as to which may be true!"

I have to agree the message is just wonderful and very wise.

I'm constantly searching inside of myself. I'm so full of faults but at the end of the day I want to fall asleep knowing I did my best to be kind, and a good person. All the while working out the kinks of maturing.

I always feel great just from reading your poetry.

Great words, Connie. Excellent reminder that self truth is of extreme importance. If you will buy your own lies, then you will buy anybodies lies. At least be true to yourself.

This is so true. I'd rather be honest, and knowing sometimes the truth hurts, then to be dishonest and hurt eternally. Just my choice. Hmm...we all have that choice. :-)
Love this one ms consue!!!! ((((((you))))
Angel always...godspeed...joni
