There are those who produce
And those who consume,
Most people do a bit of both.
It is important for growth
To know who you surround yourself with.
Life is a gift,
Do you want to be around
people who tear you down?
Or lift you up?
A consumer brings very little
To the table,
They are often able to consume
Inside of the costume
Of a producer.
Consumers have the ability to contribute –
But only when it is beneficial to themselves.
There is a wealth of people with this frame of mind.
I am trying to see this reality in a different light.
You only care about my joy and success
If there is something you recieve.
I am learning to have boundaries and leave
When I am at risk.
Ignorance is not always bliss,
Accept this,
And start to protect yourself.
Identify and recognize
The consumers in your life.
