When a flower blossoms
it must first grow through dirt
darkness and rain
the environment solemnly nourishing
the surroundings eerily comforting
they are all necessary
without them
the flower would simply
never bloom
embrace the seasons
and blossom
A word is a note
That can write a song
Heal a scar
Mend the broken
Your thoughts are words
Through intentions you speak
What your third eye sees
Your silence can speak
Mind your thoughts
Mind your words
If you only knew how brave you are
you would not bow your head to slander
you would not make pain your normal
you would not silence for comfort
you would not put yourself last
If you only knew how capable you are
you would take on that job
sing that song or dance
you would ask that question
without fear of the answer
If you only knew how much room there is
you would take up space
wish everyone well
you would be abundant and give
you would overflow
but you must know yourself
to know how brave and capable you are
to step into any room and shine
when someone is happy
some are happy for them, some are not
some mean well, some are just mean
some congratulate, some discriminate
some wish you the best, some wish at best
when someone is happy, the ones who are sincere
will be happy and cheer
some will pretend, then just wait for you to clear
your job is not to change people, or yourself
your job is to learn the difference
in some
celebrate anyway
Winding Roads
Keeping scores
sometimes sores
sometimes shallow words
they turn left and right
sometimes dead ends
sometimes one way
the weather affects visibility
for some blinding
but driving through
is like a baby walking
the more you do, the more you can see
through the fog
Gratitude Permeates
Through the nothing works for me
Or the perception of a “bad day”
It is a sour solemn moment after all
Not a Day
Gratitude Liberates
Through the engulfing of labeled bad streaks
Through the realization of so many peaks reached
You realize it is not breached perception
A descending constipation
But instead a permeable liberation
To appreciate what actually is
Because Gratitude Liberates
Abundantly
Experience or Resilience
Experience is going through something
Learning the Lesson, Reaping the Blessing
Resilience is overcoming, not undermining
The Struggle
The fact that it was never easy
Be Resilient, but far most important
Learn from the Experience
so you never repeat the pattern of struggle
again.
I cried, I mourned, I fell, I failed, I bled
until I had nothing left in me
I laughed, I celebrated, I got up, I succeded, I grew, I learned
because I gave myself no other choice
Now I pause, I look up, and I am Thankful
for the lessons, the blessings, the detours, the pathways
the failures, the successes.
Life Cycles, the living rollercoaster
until we become
like modeling clay
not fitting in, simply shape-shifting
The past holds history, memories, references, experiences
wisdom, knowledge, information, ancestry
The present becomes the past with each word, interaction, experience,
We create the future in the present with each choice
We refer to the past, to ground our present, and look into the future
You only have today, to reference, to live, experience, and feel,
You only have today to build your own future
Each day, you only have today
What you create is up to you, each day
