From the Heart
Louise Gibson
I am fighting the battle of resistance.
I have to be me, in spite of insistence.
The world is doing its best night and day
to alter my thinking, to follow its way.
Commercials tell me what I should buy,
Etiquette dictates the “how” and the “why”.
Experience has proven to be my friend.
My values I no longer have to defend.
Don’t try to make me an image of you.
It is so refreshing to have one’s own view.
No longer young, my spirit tells me.
In spite of man’s thinking, I have to be Me!
