At times, I don't understand myself. The maze of navigating between right and wrong is so impregnable and un-navigable at times.

Victor Frankl made sense

when he said -

between stimulus and response, 

there is a space;

in that space is our power to choose

our response;

in our response lies 

our growth and freedom.

I so chose today

not to barge in, impose

on territory that's not

never was

never will be my own.

I look in mirror now

eye to eye

and ask -

did I grow?

It affirms in pain

in truth it reflects

I've grown smaller

in heart I'm more demure,

in need of a stronger

armour

that desists

use and throw!
