Spend Your Time Wisely


When all around you is idleness, friction, or complaining,

Spend your time learning and earning and contributing.

__


Spend your time wisely.

__


When all around you is uncertainty and confusion,

Spend your time increasing your stability and developing your clarity.

__


Spend your time wisely.

__


When all around you is fear, anger, and divisiveness,

Spend your time in unifying and edifying actions and thoughts.

__


Spend your time wisely.

__


When all around you is sadness, grief, and pain,

Spend your time in healing thoughts, healing ideas, and healing actions.

__


Spend your time wisely.

__


When all around you is ignorance, or this or that opinion clamoring for your belief,

Spend your time researching and increasing your knowledge and wisdom.

__


Spend your time wisely.

__


Worry and panic?

Respond with calm assurance.

Hopelessness and cynicism?

Respond by shining a light.

Injustice?

Respond with speaking up.

Devastation?

Respond by focusing on repair.

__


Observe, reflect, learn

Teach, calm, heal

Repair, give hope, bring clarity

Learn, meditate, unify.

__


Spend your time wisely.

__


Spend your time wisely my friend and fellow earth traveler.

Spend your time wisely.

__


Let your legacy be comfort, clarity, peace, understanding

repair, consolation, justice.

__


Spend your time wisely.
