Sometimes in the depths of despair I ask myself the question
Why me?
These are the times that I sit there in the dark and ask it over and over
Why me?
I look at all the outside influences that drove me to this place
I find the people responsible for putting me here
And define exactly why it is happening
And then in that
I find no peace
In the book “The Art of War” Sun Tzu says
“Convince your enemy that he will gain very little by attacking you; this will diminish his enthusiasm”
I wondered again, and realized my enemy was not other people or things
It was me
Today I tell myself
I am getting very little by attacking myself
Better I spend energy on building myself
Maybe then I can ask better questions of myself
