How Does One Become Better Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

How does one become better,
Doing what one does?
And remain happy at doing it?

It takes time, patience...
And the acceptance of critique.

Biting lips and gritting teeth.
Lots of anxiety with loss of sleep.

Making mistakes.
And making mistakes.
To undo them to make more!

Motivation without expectation.
Sacrifice and mental suffering.
Emotional stress.

Being able to forgive and forget.
And do that as best as one can!
Not fearing to apologize when wrong...
Or right.
Do it regardless.
That increases one's peace of mind!

Be accountable for all actions.
Take responsibility.
Even if that means...
Taking that away from someone else.

Be thankful!
And pray.
Pray.
Pray.
Throughout each day.

Don't be afraid to ask God...
'Hey! Wassup?
You here or not?
You doin' what you suppose to do?
'Cause I'm doin' my best!
Or what I believe to be my best.'

~That sounds like you are describing a relationship!
Or a marriage.~

And...
Your point,
Is what?
