Ask The Question

Do not be afraid to ask the questions
others seem to over look.
These questions lead to answers.
Do not blame
things on yourself,
just because you do not know the answer.
Blame yourself,
if you didn't bother
to ask the question.

Everything does not have a meaning.
Why it happened

is just a thought.
Sometimes,
there are just no right answers.
You just have to accept the actions,
and continue to move on.
Life will not give you the answer,
to an unacceptable question.
It will want you to think,
to realize.

When you finally give in
to realizing that there is no answer,
you can again go on living.
You must finish forgotten projects,
start anew.
A new life starts when another life ends,
in more ways
than one.

    I really like this poem, espesially the first 3 lines.
    I think its when we stop asking questions, stop learning that we stop growing as a person.

    "Blame yourself,

    I think that is such wonderful wording and a very powerful statement. I love the depth of this.

    This seems more like a lecture than words of encouragement to me.
    The sentiments are fine but the manner of delivery is to abrupt for my taste.

    I love that instead of using one quote for inspiration you work your own advice and profound thoughts. Thank you for entering and best of luck. Happy New Year as well!

    Good job! I like it. You are right in what you said.

    "Do not be afraid to ask the questions
    others seem to over look.
    These questions lead to answers.
    Do not blame
    things on yourself,
    just because you do not know the answer.
    Blame yourself,
    if you didn't bother
    to ask the question."

    Keep writting.
