need to control
then learn to let go
let life unfold in all it’s magic
quick to anger
practice not reacting
patience and tolerance win more hearts
got a mental block
find what’s not right
loosening it allows creativity to flow
bloated with envy
it becomes harmful
rejoice in others good fortune
inclined to explode
try to plug it
gentle kindness can evolve
tension and worry
strangles natural love
loving myself opens the heart
if insecure
know you are enough
all are made of stronger stuff
knowing myself
takes those blinkers off
and let’s life unfold organically
aroused 
Such encouraging words! Kate, these verses well serve as a testament to applying common sense to one’s journey.

At first, everyone is focused on controlling commands, tasks, but eventually you have to understand that slack, letting go must take place, because any blockage blocks creativity.
