Laying Bricks

What are the consequences,
Of being told,
That you did not do what you were supposed to in life,
When you are already old,

By someone who you naturally respect,
And who should be ever supportive of you,
And surely cares for your greatest well-being,
But has great self-interest, too,

Not in a selfish way, but as a sensitive soul,
Who tries to manipulate to get its way,
Maybe consciously, but without malice,
Every minute of the day?

Well, it's alright,
To agree but to ignore its advice.
Just remind yourself that what you do, you do for a good reason,
Right?
