Speaking of Neurons

The neurons in my brain crisscross,
Carrying out their duties to keep me going.
I love the pathways that run behind the scenes
Giving messages and carrying out orders to and from my organs.
But I'm not so fond of the neurons that send me messages
Based on outdated beliefs and assumptions.
I want to scream, "I'm not 17 anymore.
Stop making me judge myself as inadequate...or worse."
So now I tell my brain that I'm not listening anymore.  
I'm switching my attention to my heart,
Which is filled with kindness and compassion.
I just have to remember to do this!!!!!!
