Of the many brittle spider webs that we entwine,
Are hopes and thoughts that we dream.
In our infinite minds,
That carry such poise,

Do we really understand what we believe?

Of the imagination we possess,
Are dreams and hopes that we envision.
Of our daily disappointments,
We discover something new,

But do we really understand what we learn?

Of our deepest desires and aspirations,
Are the deepest of feelings and needs.
And In our pleading hearts,
Is the truth But,

Do we really know what we want?

When the white blissful fear encounters us,
We want to run and hide from it.
And when it passes,
When we come out of hiding,

Do we understand what we were afraid of?

When happiness and pleasures engulf us,
And that feeling in our stomach occurs,
The crinkles in our eyes are more visible,
And the wall behind our eyes come down.

But do we know why this happiness transpires?

When our minds are not so clear,
And thinking is hard,
The lack of the transparent thoughts,
Leave us baffled and befuddled,

But do we know what our confusion is?


Our life is a rollercoaster,
As we ascend and descend.
Everyday is just another ride,
On the rollercoaster of life.
And of the things that we feel,
I hope that we know,
Hope we know who we are,
Know who we were,
And what we might become.
When fear overcomes us
I hope we know what fear is.
And when things are not clear,
I hope that we know our confusion.
I hope everyday will be different,
Experience new things and feelings.
Get to know ourselves well
Understand who we are.

And understanding who we are can lead to a mentality
Ready for the intense and powerful rollercoaster of life
