We all understand routines. Some are automatic.
We follow them every day taking the steps without
Thinking; indifferent to things about us.
We plod on until interrupted. Suddenly we don’t know
Which way to turn or whether we should just stand
And let things clear on their own. An honest soul
may not do that. Action is required and we must act
prudently. Solve whatever came before us.
When we do this often enough it becomes automatic
and we wake up to the fact that we have
Duties to fulfill along our wandering path and
these duties cost nothing, except a little bit of time
and may save others from harmful situations and
embarrassment. You may become the go to man
Where people say take it to you as
You will know what to do. you know
How to solve problems. You have
Gone from a “sleepwalker” to a leader
People have respect for you and
Voice it time and time again
Although it makes you feel good you
Do not become euphoric, but rather dedicate
yourself to this new way of life. You are setting an
example that others may be eager to follow and
you are thankful.
