SELF EXAMINATION

What’s the trait you value most about yourself?

As I toil around in thoughts and action,

In a noisy world street that echoes too high,

I suspect the sun is taking records of all,

As the sun goes down with it’s report,

I daily hide under the shadow of the dark cloud,

To reflect and to examine myself,

As my conscience report all my actions to me,

I judge myself by myself and seek a redress.

Not a deadened conscience I must carry,

To x-tray my frailty as an imperfect being,

As I unconsciously stepped on the innocent ants while walking around,

Self examination is my guiding trait to life encounters,

No self prejudice, no self pity,

Not indulging under the cavity of my flesh

Before the panel of my conscience, morals and spirit,

Always putting myself in the shoes of others,

To know how unpleasant action pinches as needle,

To seek a redress and restitute my past,

That others may smile and my soul may relax.

Self examination is the key to healthy social interaction,

It aids quick conflict resolution,

It silence wrath and war,

It guides in a noisy world of insults and assaults,

As I daily long to have a conscience

Void of offense toward God and towards men.
