Reflecting on Reflection

Reflection:
I don't take enough time to
Take a second glance at life
To see what just happened
And where it's leading me.
Life maintained on efficiency
And abhorring "laziness"
Pushes and Pushes until
The Domino effect has
Knocked us all down.
Life reflecting
Takes time as it is
Making each second matter
As we meditate on experiences life as led us through
Not taking that to reflect the second, to look back and take in
Rather than absorb for answers to questions
Makes life worth living.
What can I say I've done with my life if all I've done is
Increase the amount of money in my bank account,
Doing a job I hate?
Life should be live to love and to be loved.
Shy away from the despair and bitter taste of cold, hard money.
Walk further. Sing louder.
Look longer. Take what matters in, because without it, nothing else matters.
Time. Money was only invented because we don't have enough time.
Reflection is understanding yourself. It's more important to understand yourself than communicate with others.
Take the minute. Or hour.
Never make parts of life obligations.
Only do what you can do.
In the end, you find that is what you needed to do.
Welcome the silence.
Though it echoes through your mind and throws you off the first time.
Let all of our distractions
Outer layers, Unnecessary additions in life fall away.
Peel away to the core.
Be bare to the light.
May your gold-driven heart become softened by love
To accept and send out affection.
Affection over money
Time over money
Reflection over money.
This world is destructive
Stop the spinning and
Open your eyes.
Don't be afraid of change. Welcome it.
