Vijaiya Ramkissoon - First Look Within

The deeds of others
I most often criticise,
I judge, I accuse
And so many i despise..

I havent taken the time
To mend my ways
Yet i am intent on
Receving undeserving praise..

I look with disgust
At the words of my brother,
Ignorant to the fact
That today, i cursed another.

I point my finger
Always laying blame
Then i find faults in others
When they do the same..

I must use a moment
For self examination
And before i judge,
Think about my every action..

I must live within His Laws
Striving to do right,
And never allow others' wrongdoings
In my sight.........

For if there is to be change,
It must start with Me....
I must live that change
i wish to see.........

Bless! !
