Journey To Your Self

Anthony8 Comments

Don’t sweat the small stuff

Our life is very long

Take each lesson even if rough

In stride for one day you’ll be strong.

–

Take each opportunity

That comes your way

Don’t get caught up in scrutiny

Make the most of every day.

–

Just keep going

You’re always in motion

Crushing your journey

With your inner devotion.

–

Someday you’ll move miles

And on others just inches

Do so with a smile

Even when life pinches.

–

Always experience grace

With general gratitude

Move at your own pace

Exhibit a positive attitude.

–

This journey is important

It’s where you become the best

The steepest climbs are potent

But you will pass this test.

–

Now give yourself a hug

Because you’ve nearly made it

Feel your heart and pride tug

For the progress you created…

Self Affirmation

AnthonyLeave a comment

Pick yourself up out of the mud

You are so amazing, not a dud.

–

Don’t let the women of your past define you

Learning and aging well like fine wines do.

–

Put it all together and you’ll see

Just how much you are free.

–

Living a life of which you’ve dreamed

Make the impossible, possible it seemed.

–

Making it all happen, and never vexed

Looking forward to the exciting life next.

–

Have an adventure, take that trip

Go to places that’ll make you flip.

–

So fasten your belt and tighten your shoes

The days are long over for singing the blues.

–

Your lessons learned and now you’re living

Receiving blessings instead of just giving…

Emerge, From Your Cocoon!!

Anthony5 Comments

Break the chrysalis

Smash the shell

Freed with emphasis

And happiness as well.

–

You’ve journeyed hard

You’ve quested far

Now clear regard

For all that you are.

–

The future is today

Not tomorrow

Set your past at bay

And lose all the sorrows.

–

It’s go time

Your day has arrived

Your doing fine

Pleased that you survived.

–

Spread your butterfly wings

And fly high and away

The satisfaction your hard work brings

Means more joys when you play.

–

So sing your songs

With the music, dance

You’ve righted all wrongs

When you have yourself a chance…

Art by Lili Zeng

Loving yourself isn’t just ideal,

It is absolutely necessary

We all do have appeal

Not the contrary.

–

Knowing your value

Will save your life

In everything that you do

Preventing strife.

–

Hold on fast

To all your goals

The bad times won’t last

Though it takes a toll.

–

Push on hard

Through the fire

Even if needing restart,

On life’s high wire.

–

Be ever present

And live in the now

Drop your past resentment

As you push and plough.

–

Reap the happiness

Living your best life now

Share with all who’ll witness

Applied lessons and know-how.

Surpassing Fear and Ugly Doubt

Anthony3 Comments

Just below the spectrum of sound

There’s an ugliness, free, abound.

–

Through description isn’t needed

All my advice should be heeded.

–

Ugliness, doesn’t speak it only feels

Pain and hurt that are all too real.

–

Drowning rain on your sunny days

Crippling insecurities, all allayed.

–

Sad thoughts bad thoughts come to mind

Leaving in each of us, a hurtful bind.

–

Negative energy is where we’re at

“Too thin” “ Too redundant” or “Too fat”.

–

Fight those dark thoughts, as best you can

Know we’re meant for better, is our plan.

–

Pour salt water onto the seeds of doubt

A happy life is where it’s about.

–

Take many chances, venture far from home

Endless miles from your comfort zone.

–

Where growth and peace appear

And no longer living life In fear.

–

As you pass each and every test

You come out the other side, as your best…
