The Grand Scheme of Things

Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another.

~The Grand Scheme of Things~

My heart reaches out to those that have gone before me.

My heart looks ahead to those who are after me. 

But does this matter?

Is what I do really matter in the grand scheme of things?

My heart grasps onto truths that have been taught to me.

My heart breaks when I fall down into the deep.

But does this matter?

Is what I feel and believe matter in the grand scheme of things?

I realize the commentary in my life is that of a heckle.

I realize it hurts and stings when I am on my own. 

But does this matter?

I wonder this daily?

Does it matter that I die every day?

Does it matter that my vices are flaws made by being critical of the truth?

Am I able to stitch together selfishness and turn it into good?

Am I able to love and have that be enough?

Does it matter? 

Am I causing my brother to fall?

Does it matter?

Am I causing my mind to over think all I know is true?

My heart has chosen to believe over doubt. 

My heart has chosen to doubt the lie that hides inside.

Do my actions influence others, does it matter? 

I think I will let you decide.
