I
I Walk Down The Street. There is a Deep Hole in the Sidewalk,
I Fall In. I Feel Lost and Helpless. But It Isn’t My Fault.
It Takes Forever to Find a Way Out.
II
I Walk Down the Same Street. There is a Deep Hole in the Sidewalk.
I Pretend I Don’t See It. I Fall In Again.
I Feel Upset That I Am in the Same Hole. But It Isn’t My Fault!
It Takes a Long Time To Get Out.
III
I Walk Down the Same Street. There is a Deep Hole in the Sidewalk.
I Pretend I Don’t See It. I Fall In Again.
I Feel Upset That I Am in the Same Hole. But It Isn’t My Fault!
It Takes a Long Time To Get Out.
IV
I Walk Down the Same Street. There is a Deep Hole in the Sidewalk.
I See It, I Own It, and I Wisely DecideTo Walk Around It.
V
I Consciously Decide To Walk Down a Different Street,
That Doesn’t Have a Deep Hole. My Walk Feels Safe, Peaceful, and Serene
And I Feel Happy and Self-Empowered.
