Hum…..let me think….
Wake up, school- learning basics
job, training skills
Carpool- doing chores
Appointments-responsibilities
Ear infection for little Moishe oh boy!
Being a parent
But when do we think?
making supper
To nourish the kids
completing a report
To pay for the food
But when do we think?
Giving advice
Helping a friend
Listen ear
To soothe a a child
Proffesional opinion
To make some profit
But when do we think?
Cousins engaged
Lchaim
Few weeks later
Wedding
Getting ready pish posh
But when do we think?
Chanuka party
All had fun
Happy excited
Its in the air
But when do we think?
Give me a few years till
Things settle down a little
Then I can sort things out in my brain
I don’t want to live in vain
Listen my friend nows the time
Its important not just my rhyme
To put thought into who u are and why
Don’t let even one day “pass you by”
Remember We’re here for a little stay
And then in a moment we go away
No more carpool job or school
No more yeshiva or going to shul
There’s a great purpose for each and every one
Think- where did I come from?
Why am I here and what should I do
Why am I different living as a Jew
What’s my mission no doubt there must be one
I was handcrafted by the Holy One
Not mistake not extra just right
There’s a purpose in every moment of my life
So when do we think?
All the time!
Whether ur doing a good deed
Or enjoying some lemon lime
You don’t even have to make a date
Just look around and appreciate
The great wonders of the world
No not talking about the malls
The trees the flowers the outdoors
Unimaginable wisdom
The human body and how it works
Will boggle ur mind if given some thought
So think all day while every thing you do
What am I doing why and for who?
What’s my goal, starting now and here
If I don’t know where I’m going
How will I know when I get there?
Think, it’ll give you insight
About urself
About ur life
You’ll feel empowered
In control
Never in a lull
There’s always pupose direction too
When ur a thinking Jew.
