Putting The “er” In Your Life

As you go through the journey of life,
consider putting the “er” into it for some added quality
Become braver in making decisions you hesitate about
even if it means ultimate failure
Be smarter and learn from mistakes to experience success
Be stronger to forge ahead in whatever you do and
become a believer in who you are and what you will accomplish
Continue to be a supporter of your family and friends and
bring laughter into their lives to create precious memories
Continue to be kinder to your loved ones and to others as well
Become a lover of all aspects of goodwill so that
you can shine brighter and bring positivity into the world
If you are willing to apply some of these traits to yourself,
you can become a leader and inspire others to do the same
You’ll be a winner because of how these traits guide your actions,
you’ll be a better person for possessing these habits
and most importantly, improve your character
It separates you as someone of substance
which our world needs more of

To Be Seen

Even though you feel like an outcast
because of your preferences,
you are seen
Even though you feel like you’re all alone
despite being in a crowd,
you are seen
Even though you feel like you’ve lost sight
of who you are,
you are seen
Even if you are experiencing these feelings,
you are definitely one of a kind
and your family and friends
are there for you
and will never give up on you
because of who you truly are
For that in their eyes…
you are seen

The Writer’s Codex

The color of a writer’s soul
should be one
that is burning bright red
It symbolizes
your intense passion
You swear loyalty to that,
you cherish it
and gain strength from it
and then live
without betraying that
That’s the writer’s codex

The Phenomenon Of How We Write

Writing occurs spontaneously without instruction
Your mind has no idea
that your heart
is helping you put
the words to paper
Whether it comes out in the form of
a lengthy story,
an eloquent poem,
a single sentence
or a simple word
The heart pushes our choice of words
to the forefront
to help us create
the act of writing prose

a natural phenomenon
