Ask yourself
Two arms were having an argument.
“I am better than you because
I write” said The right arm
“Oh but a few people use their
left arm instead which makes
me even more special” replied the left arm
“Well I am controlled by the
left side of the brain
Which holds the heart”
the right arm snickered
“I’m better than you” The left arm
flung back, hitting the body
in-between them
The right arm hit back.
This time landing a blow
On the right temple of the
Head that separated them
The Body and the head stood tall
And alerted themselves for another attack.
“But who do you cling to for survival? ”
the body asked. “And who do you
rely on for your very ability to function.?
Both arms drooped sadly.
“You “ they said together.
“ that’s right” said the body
“ For without me you are nothing.
Remember that”.
To me I would be like those arms
flinging around if I lost sight of
what holds me together.
For My heart and Soul are my
foundation. They direct me and
stay strong for me.
So I say to you.
What holds you together?
