We inhale what is around us;

It enters our bodies through our
Lungs, our Pores and our Stomachs.

We also take in things
Through our Eyes and Ears.

Our minds soak up things as
Sponges do.
Many people would have us fear the food
We eat and the air we breathe; I think there’s a bit of
Validity there, at least to justify being cautious.

Methinks that
What we take in to our minds
Can be MUCH more deadly.

After all;
YOU CAN’T KILL AN IDEA!

Think carefully of
What you’re told, what you read;
Weigh things
With your eyes OPEN, with your mind keenly
Aware, and
MOST importantly, be careful of
What you let into your heart.
That should
Be reserved for Hope and Love alone.

If You let the negativity inside you, then
You just might lose your way.

Always Remember, that what is outside you is
All “Smoke and Mirrors”, it can’t
Touch you if you don’t let it in.
Oh, to be sure, you can die of
Poisoned food or air.
IF
There’s peace within you,
It will be easier for you
To spread Peace to all
The world around.

“Smoke and Mirrors”
