Belongings

In this world, we have belongings, 

things we inherited from families, 

physical attributes, living condition,

from genetics, to financial situations. 

Our upbringing nourish our minds,

helping us connect with surroundings, 

soaking information, developing identities,

that would present, our inner qualities. 

Belongings... 

It's something we all possess,

thoughts we reveal, some we suppress, 

acting as our needs, others to impress,

for the projection, of our success. 

And it influences, our every action,

either voluntarily or unconscious reaction,

stemmed from desires, and aspirations, 

along with our pride, or compulsions. 

So, the wise ones cautions, 

speaks of wisdom on disconnections, 

to truly be receptive of the blessings,

bestowed by divine upon us... 

Belongings... 

Should we disown, or nurture,

or make excuses, to venture,

for, they too have significance, 

imparting meanings, into our existence.
