Discipline

For you to feel as you feel right

By Joshua Lino-da CostaPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Discipline is not the compliance of rules,

It is knowing when you can break them.

Only you can tell what is right.

The way no two trees grow in unison

Does morals get shared to the exact letter.

What is right depends on your perception of good and evil.

Those who live in evil will be surrounded by it forever

As that is all they know.

Is it the duty of those who know good to provide that service

So that one day the discipline we share with loved ones

Will be offered to our foes;

So brothers and sisters can be found

In every corner of the world.
