A Two Sided Coin Poem by Marvin Brato Sr
A Two Sided Coin
Life basically
Has two sides:
The good on one side
And bad on another
Either ways,
Got to choose only one state
None can live on both
To be good
Is the superior side
Though not easy
Yet rewarding
All it need is discipline
To do fine things
That elicit honor
To be bad
Is the inferior side
Quite easy
But disastrous
All it need is get crazy
Just do the worst
To induce disgrace
Its one's choice
To which side of the coin
Would one wants his life to be?

Gibran calls these two sides of each one of us the God self and the pigmy self. It is too easy for the pigmy self to take charge - especially during times of stress and when there is poor self-esteem. It always amazes me though, that some who have the worst childhood grow up in their God selves, while others, who appear to have everything, go down the pigmy path. You're right. We all have a choice. A fine, thought-provoking poem. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
