Freedom is Found in Change

by Bryce 1

This Is My Life! Contest Winner 

My philosophy of life is ever changing
Today it's sunny, tomorrow it's raining
One day I'm working, the next I'm lazy
Today I'm sane, in an hour I'm crazy
 
A philosophy should have it's ups and downs
It's smiles and frowns
Secret undergrounds
A map towards the crown
 
If change is a constant, philosophy is too
Much like the ever evolving truth 
Like chaotic seas that are always blue
The same each day some way feels new
 
My philosophy is in the wind
Raging around and brought back again
Refreshed anew and pondered within
Released again in the name of zen
 
If I hold on to a notion for too long
It will gain weight and then turn wrong
The way philosophy stays strong
Is by allowing it free to move along
 
One thing that seems to be known
Philosophy has a mind of its own
Let it speak then let it roam
Then reveal your findings in lines of prose 
 
I hope I've summed up my philosophy 
Basically, let it all be free
Give away your will that says "it's me"
And live your life carelessly 
Let every move come whimsically 
Like a kid who forgets what tomorrow might be
And pays no mind to a past out of a reach 
Just live in the moment
Where forever is free
