If

Tayama

If you can see the future, you'll become it...

If you can understand your sin, you'll defeat it...

If you can let them go, you'll then understand their pain...

If you let her breath first, she will breathe as one with you...

If you allow virtue, you'll offer peace...

If you rage, let the rage be for good...

If you corrupt, then only corrupt thy self...

If you forgive, begin with yourself...

If you lie, do it in silence...

If you are to hurt, first think why and of it's worth...

If you are to love, do it with heart, not body...

If it's to end, accept and smile...

If it causes fear, know thy courage...

If it causes pain, be thankful you feel...

If it is to be...let it and know thy truth...

      Was listening to it on the train the other day. Then just stared writing. One of my favorites. 😊
