I’m the best pal that I ever had,
I like to be with me;
I like the sit and tell myself
Things confidentially.
I often sit and ask me
If I shouldn’t or I should,
And I find that my advice to me
Is always pretty good.
I never got acquainted with
Myself till here of late;
And I find myself a bully chum,
I treat me simply great.
I talk with me and walk with me,
And show me right and wrong;
I never knew how well myself
And I could get along.
I never try to cheat me,
I’m as trustful as can be;
No matter what may come or go,
I’m on the square with me.
It’s great to know yourself and have
A pal that’s all your own;
To be such company for yourself,
You’re never left alone.
You’ll try to dodge the masses,
And you’ll find the crowds a joke,
If you only treat yourself as well
As you treat other folk.
I’ve made a study of myself,
Compared me with the lot,
And I’ve finally concluded
I’m the best friend I’ve got.
Just get together with yourself
And trust yourself with you,
And you’ll be surprised how well yourself
Will like you if you do.
Guess the title of this poem? “Satire on Self”. BAH.
I have now come to the conclusion that the main cause of many problems is the refusal to admit that a problem exists and that anything should be done about it. Call it being cowardly or delusional. I honestly think that if everyone just tackled problems face to face, things would be a lot easier. Ignoring the issue and running away from it, only causes it to fester, and soon you’ll have full-blown gangrene. I’m sure no one wants that, do they? Call me confrontational, but I prefer speaking my mind and forcing others to do so too, than saying that nothing is wrong when everything’s so not right. Thrash things out… for life would be so much less painful that way. Short term pain with long term gain. :)

Preparing for TOK OP though I’m not feeling quite up to it. What on earth makes a document historically accurate? I can’t ask the historian, for he’s the one grading me.
So who commented?
