a clean slate is what we sometimes wish for
a new chance to change to a better form
but as the saying goes
be careful what you wish for
the challenges to attain good change is unlike anything we've seen before
with temptations as deterents in various forms
some of which we fall for
making us wonder if we will ever be in better form
but even though we sin everyday
we won't always wear the uniform
but we don't realize
that every moment is a chance at a clean slate
every breath is a chance at a clean slate
our life is the slate
clean it with kindness
seek forgiveness
we're human, we cannot be sinless
so lets find a way to sin less
let's do the best we can
and then maybe, just maybe
we'll be blessed beyond what we wished for
