Rhyme and Read: Scattered Minds by Gabor Mate

In a world of scattered thought,
Our focus is easily lost.
The mind wanders, directionless,
Tossed around by life's distress.

Our inner turmoil can be deep,
Our emotions hard to keep.
A scattered mind, a restless soul,
We search for ways to be whole.

But what if there was another way,
To approach each and every day?
To understand our scattered mind,
And the traumas that we left behind.

By exploring our past and pain,
We can break free of our mental chain.
With compassion and understanding,
We can embrace life's demanding.

The scattered mind can be healed,
And our true potential revealed.
With love and care, we can find peace,
And our scattered minds, finally release.

The scattered mind is common in this modern world, everything is done to keep us in a state of conscious shock, but not thinking.
Some very interesting verses to reflect on.
Thanks for sharing.
Good day.

Acknowledging our emotions is key to managing them effectively, and with mindfulness and self-awareness, we can navigate life's unfairness. Thank you for this beautiful piece 🙏.

A broken mind! This is exactly what we are left to face in a world where the order of the day revolves around despair, pain, and distraught.

It's amazing how you script reality into poetry. Poetry which we can all relate to, poetry which is an emblem of the things we face every single day.

Nice✨
