Which of these matter?
Because sooner or later,
Life is going to throw this question at you,
If you've got no wisdom, you are going to lose,
And life loves no loser,
So you have to think and choose.
Which of these matter?
Living for yourself or others?
Allowing shallow words of human
Drain you of your joy?
Caring for what people have to say about you,
Tolerating all the negativity?
Or shutting your ears to fleeting human comments
So that your joy can be full, not relying on people's comment,
And just doing what comforts
And makes you happy,
Welcoming only positivity?
Look keenly and choose,
Weigh your options,
Your response determines your survival.
You either trade your joy
For people-pleasing or
Trade the people for your joy.
Which of these matters?
Choose well, get wisdom,
Make sure not to lose,
At the end of the day, if you lose,
This same life you traded your joy for,
Is going to desert you.
Thank you for your time.

Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.
