The greatest decision
you will ever make in your life
is the path you choose
of your own volition
By doing so,
you will have no regrets
and won’t question
your every step
on your journey
to reach your goal
Your Greatest Decision
Writer’s Soul
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
Keep Smiling
When things start to get tense,
keep smiling
When things are dire,
keep smiling
When your heart gets too weak
to endure everything thrown at you,
keep smiling
Until that inner strength
inside of you
blossoms bright like a flower
and is able to help you
take on and overcome
the issues that you are facing…
just keep smiling
In The Right Place
You are where you’re supposed to be
You are a part of your family and friend’s world
You’re there in their universe to bring your heart,
to instill in them with love, support, guidance and hope
So be honored that you’ll accompany them
every step of the way of their life
whether you’re with them physically or in spirit
As Long As…
As long as you’re alive,
you can come back from every failure you encounter
As long as you’re alive,
you can take another step forward and make progress toward your goals
As long as you’re alive,
you can continue to dream to keep your spirit flourishing
As long as you’re alive,
be eternally grateful that you simply have another chance
The Intangibility of Belief
Whether it be
family, friends, loved ones or acquaintances
When someone believes in you,
in your skills,
in your character,
in your potential growth
that is a priceless and immeasurable
It gives you the strength, confidence and passion
to strive to be successful
in all that you do
In turn,
the belief in oneself
becomes a powerful force
in sustaining you to overcome and persevere
in any venture you decide to undertake
Rely On Your Courage
When your strength and drive
cannot continue to help sustain
your fight towards overcoming life’s obstacles,
let your sheer courage
take over and help you to
achieve success
Common Traits of a Writer
Curiosity of the unknown,
fascination of what could be,
eyes of wonderment,
imagination without constraints,
inspiration to share ideas, experiences and dreams
These are some of the traits
that make a writer
continue to create with their words
Stay
Stay committed to your work
Stay disciplined to your craft
Stay true to your inner voice
Stay the course to your choice of words
If you are able to stay on that path
and not waver
then the life of a writer
is what you’re best suited for
The Best At Getting Better
Never falter in your convictions
Continue to elevate yourself
by knowing your weaknesses
and moving past them with the determination
to better yourself
Master everything and anything
that will make you grow stronger
with every change
