PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I wish we all had the ability to really understand and appreciate how much people value our efforts, love, and talents. A lot of people really cannot see how stunning they are to me, and to others. (I fall victim here the same way as well, I'll admit I don't often see my strengths when they'd be helpful)

A compliment, a selfless deed, a word or two of encouragement, are all good things. Sometimes we get lost in our own minds and these deeds can unlock the acceptance of others...leading to one of the most effective ways to bring us back to happiness/clarity.

Be part of a remedy, not a contributor/author in another chapter of a book wrought in worry and doubt. You matter - and you're not less of a person because you're 'past your prime.' Your 'prime,' much like attempting to gauge other's attractiveness to you, or in determining self-success, or simply doing what makes you happy; these things are all RELATIVE to yourself and your surroundings.

Build yourself into something better for your path. Challenge your doubts, improve your shortcomings, surprise yourself by releasing all the pent up heartache, the pent up disappointment, pent up anger....channel those emotions into something productive, indestructible, and helpful to others. Be the voice of support in a world of judgement and expectations...fuck, start small...just be there for somebody in a time of need. 

People often search for a lifetime to discover light in a often dim world...

Learn how to light your own matches, and then ignite those around you.
