The Beginnings Of Endings
Anna M Molton 1972 (Chicago, IL)
This is the beginning of endings.
Ending the hollering, the complaining.
The back stabbing, the hating.
Ending the costliness of aiming at others' hearts instead of embracing, empathizing saying I wonder where their hearts are?
I wonder what they're walking through?
Yes, this is the beginning of endings. Ending placing the blame on others on accepting, finally accepting, responsibility for me, and my own actions. You see, God has given us free will. You have a responsibility. What are you going to do with it?
