Blame not no one when things seem not to turn out the way you want
Look not to the right nor to the left on whom to vent your anger on
Look not far away on whom to lay accusing finger on
cos you’re responsible for your life
Be not angry at mother earth for granting you passage into this world
Lay no accusation on father or mother
Curse not the day you first saw the light of day
And felt the embrace of the universe
For in you lieth the responsibility for your life
Blame not the Society or government for not giving you everything you want
For now that you have transited to manhood
You are required to stand for yourself
And choose the course that you must follow
Let not challenges pull you back from your goal
Let no setback keep you from going on
For the tide will turn around when thou thinkest not
Blame no one anymore
For you are responsible for your life.

Original Poem by Evelyn Foster
I want to thank @d-pend so much for the opportunity to participate in this 100 Days poetry challenge of the Steemit School run by @dobartim, @d-pend, @flysky and others.
Do well to follow the steemit school discord channel via this link https://discord.gg/CpAx56. Your steemit experience will be greatly transformed.
I truly envy those capable of writing out words of positive thinking. This was by far my favorite stanza. "Curse not the day you first saw the light of day." Because some days we feels more blessed than we do cursed and those days alone are worth taking our first breath. It's hard not to blame the world for our mistakes but quality of life will never change if we can't appreciate what we were given.
Beautiful piece (: I look forward to reading more from you!
