Maturity
There was a time when my mind was consumed with thoughts of me;
- my house
- my car
- my education
- my career
- my goals
- my passion
- my future;
- me, me, me…
Fortunately, my life induced transformation has opened my eyes to the existence of US and the opportunities WE have to make a positive impact on the world. This is called MATURITY, and I’m thankful for it.
As a Matter of Fact
It’s amazing,
how a positive attitude
coupled with genuine acts of kindness
can uplift both you
and those around you
How something as simple
as a smile
can be a Godsend to
someone having the worst day
of their life
How a sincere thank you
can uplift the spirit
of someone working hard
but feeling unappreciated
How a heartfelt compliment
can make someone
radiate light like the sun
How a word
as simple as hello
can make a forgotten soul
remember what it’s like
to be seen
It’s amazing,
how much we matter
to each other
and how little of an effort
is needed
to make a difference
As a matter of fact
It’s a shame
that more of us
don’t do it
It
the kindness
a smile
thank you
a compliment
hello
Amazing
38 Years
Hello dreams, I know we’ve had an up and down relationship through the years mixed in with some trying times, but I want to thank you for staying with me through it all. When I had that nasty affair with doubt that took me to the brink of failure, you stayed by my side. When I almost ruined my life by lusting after the easy way, it was you that reminded me of who I was and helped me get back on track. When I became too afraid to move because I was paralyzed by fear, you gave me the nudge I needed to step forward. It seems like an eternity ago, when we were two unblossomed seeds meeting each other for the first time. Look at us now battle tested, resilient, and closer to one another and our destiny. Yes, 38 years of love can do that.
