It’s a Journey…

Never let the harder parts bog you down.

Life’s journeys can be somewhat difficult.

It’s where we end up, so you need not frown.

Don’t beat yourself up, for it’s not your fault.

There’s sugar and spice but other times, salt.

Step up now and forget about the past.

For if you’d don’t, a happiness won’t last.

Now, you kick up your heals and celebrate.

As your best times will come upon you fast.

Being your best self in an ideal state…

From the deepest depths of my soul there is a single small light.

This is the beginning, a long road to make it grow from an ember to a fierce blaze.

Tread lightly and cry as much as you can.

Your heart is rebooting, bare with the pain the burning and the radiating tingles.

I swear it’s going to be better than alright faster than you think.

You face your pain you invite it you bask as swim in it.

This processes and heals you and fast it’s just very hard and very intense.

You’re doing it, I don’t know but this is a rebirth. Hang on and keep going!

“Be a beacon of light shining forward and blazing through adversity. Be brave take those steps alone you need. Make the changes go for the best in life and don’t be afraid to take fall or two along the way. “
