Somehow or somewhere
You will find
A new way of thinking,
A new piece of mind
Through life you wonder
Without a care
Until one question,
Pops out of thin air
Do I live life,
with full peace of mind?
Can I say that I,
have done more right than wrong?
Then I think to myself
I havn't done much wrong
Its just the people around me
Who I can't control
Please tell me what you think

the first thing i thought of, even before I read the acctual poem, was that the title has the same name as one of my favorite songs by Boston!
so now I am listening to that and commenting at the same time!(its the little things in life that make me happy.heehee)
I like most of this poem and I realized that I too have asked myself the same question of whether the way I am living is really the way I should.
the last two lines though made me wonder if you really are just automatically blaming other people for the things you might not be proud of...I know that though even I wan't to blame for the not so good decisions in my life that I made I can't b/c I know it WAS in my controll.
But I really do like this piece, it reminds me of parts of Henry David Thoreau's "walden pond"
he is always questioning himself and his life, and what he could have been like in another life.
...hey now you can say you are a transendentalist

In the last two lines I wasn't blaming anyone for my doings... just saying that other people do wrong things which i can't stop them doing. Thanks for the comment young lady
