The piece is good; however I think the poet wanted to take was (s)he sees around the world on daily basis the struggle of decision making and life in general and do justice with the piece.

It's a good thing that positivity has been written down by one of our fellow writers in the form of a beautiful poem. The peom seems like the writer would be a great parent or even is one right now. This poem is like what moral teaching missionaries would shove down our throat. Giving us morals preaching, saying why black is bad and white is good. This poem is head-dazzling white.

I am a stranger to poetry, so I'm not sure how much will it mean if I say I like this one :) Well done!

It's an inspiring piece of art that covers entire spectrum of contemporary society. However, on the latter part of the line: "To treat your flesh as your temple, but not your true self", gives the impression that one has not fully tamed the "self". I believe that this is no mean feat demanding divine intervention. I reckon that my views need not concur with yours due to varied perspectives in life. I enjoyed reading it.

To be true to my self and to create my own World with a sincere heart. And to know the limit of whatever I decide to do.

This has been the most interesting, thoughtful & deep poem I've ever heard. It really takes you to a place of soul searching & the balance that each line strikes, within one's self as it is read. Great piece, I enjoyed it & loved it. If there was a banner of how someone should live their life, this would be it!

An inspiring piece that gives an image of what the ideal human life should be. The things we ought to do without going to extremes.

Simply be POSITIVE no matter what situation we humans found ourselves in.
