Live!

Forget the haters,

ignore the snobs,

Defy the blockers

Tear up excuses

Spread your wings 

Protect the ones you love,

pity those who dont want to understand,

take on the challenges, 

Stay strong in your passions,

use your gifts prolificaly,

help as much as you grow,

love the unlovable,

do the once thought impossible

the only limits are the ones we let others place on ourselves. 


 

God has greater plans

start training now! ;)

I'm so glad you brought back

I'm so glad you brought back this treasure and shared it like water in the desert. I wanted to cheer at the end of every life-altering line in your brilliant, condensed life manual that pretty much sums up my personal curriculum (not always easily learned) in the last few years.

 

And the title: you couldn't have found a better fit.

 

With sparkling dexterity of language, you invited me to take another crash course in what is most important and return to my true self.

 

Thank you, poetic sage.

My favourite bit…

 

use your gifts prolifically,

help as much as you grow,

love the unlovable,
