Wednesday Riff: I Don’t Have It All Figured Out

I love life, but it scares me.

I believe in hope, but sometimes despair.

I believe in caring but sometimes folks bug me.

Some days I like them, some days I don’t.

Sometimes I think I’m winning,

Sometimes I feel as if I’m losing.

Because I don’t have it all figured out yet.

I want to smile but often scowl.

I long to be upbeat, but find myself complaining.

Want to be understanding but frequently judge.

I want to help but often hinder.

Some days I seem to have all the answers,

Some days I don’t have any at all.

Because I don’t have it all figured out yet.

I know what I think and then I don’t.

I have my principals then lose them.

I Want to fight for truth and justice

Then I want to throw in the towel.

I know where I’m heading then

Feel suddenly lost all over again…

Because I don’t have it all figured out yet.
