maybe if I wasn't so self-indulgent,
then I'd be able to see that the
world doesn't revolve around me.
maybe if I wasn't so stubborn,
then I'd be able to appreciate the
art of taking things slow and
keeping my options open
instead of always closing
myself off to the
world.
maybe if I wasn't so lazy,
then I'd be motivated to
get better and to keep going
instead of just giving up and
going back to how I used to be.
maybe if I wasn't so materialistic,
then I'd be able to appreciate what
I have right in front of me instead of
always wanting what more and more
constantly.
