The Burden of Self-Reliance

Have you ever been entangled in wiring,

Constantly tripping over it,

Unable to make any progress?

Have you ever tried to walk through darkness,

With a light swallowed by the black?

We make unnecessary mistakes,

Not taking the time to untangle ourselves.

We stumble and run into things,

Unable to see the whole picture.

This is us when we do not know what we need to know.

This is us when we believe we can achieve things without a true source,

Generating our abilities on our own.
