I feel the doubt in you already. Maybe it's a side effect of the warped information age. We forget that the only person needing to be informed and real with us is the one reading. Since when do you require validation or support from someone who hasn't seen life through your eyes? Or from crowds of followers not on speaking terms, not in your everyday-lives?
Great, here we go again. Another person writing, imposing their opinion on what you should think or do. Explaining how you should feel. Speaking on...
How to deal.
How to heal.
How to grow.
Show yourself how.
But even that perfect flower above doesn't do it alone.
Water and some light. Another person scribbling words to paint a picture of the perfect soul in you. Another "love yourself" push from someone who fought in and out of selfish love. Someone who beats themselves up, even when they have it all. This is really what they choose to do with their time.
Some words sting, they want it more than you.
No no no, don’t get it twisted. Some people are spread thin, you catch them all over the place. No doubts, I'm talking about both energy and time. The real ones will only ask for the ladder.
More light, we climb together. I take what the world gives, and filter it back with some words over time. I'd rather not let these messages be held in your hand for a minute, with no shots of love passing around hour hands.
Slow down. Who is this about? Millennials want it all instantaneous, going in circles swiping right. Leaders moving in too many directions with mixed vibes. Like broken clocks in the cold, in due time, we run out of it. It is what it is, and sometimes, it's never enough. Let it go. If only we switch focus from all that's been lost, and warm up towards all that's left to give.
Let's be straight forward with love.
The message is all around us. It's written, in music, art, sports, TV series, and movies - you’re following celebrities now that spread feelings too. People just don't naturally reach their potential without observing them.
“I pity the fool”, straight up. Before you become too harsh of a critic on yourself, all of us, or anything anyone does, pause when you look in the mirror. Take note as to whether or not you smile next time you do. Those very smiles are rare in a selfie today; are you being good to you? What kind of message are you spreading in your day-to-day? To strangers? To those who's hands you shake, cheeks you kiss, lips you embrace? What kind of energy are you circulating if you look or speak down on harmless actions or expression?
Not just words, pay attention. It's easy to falter, harder to rise; the pressure in life's seasons can mold you into either a rock, or a diamond. How to handle the cold. It's up for you to choose; we all fall.
Love, like our time is precious, and should be treated as such. Above all else, be sure to invest both in yourself. From there, love seeps out into the world, attracting more.
I swear I missed most of my wrongs, swinging for the right next play. I guess that's why they tell us to live in the now. Is life a dream or a game? Light always bounces back so I found some patience. Rome wasn't built in a day, and it survived burning through the nights. So keep plugging away, connect at the heart, and know that every moment can be a fresh start.
We all make mistakes, but we learn from them with clarity.
One on one - If I curve you, I'll soft-toss the pitch, showing you exactly what it is.
Playing the field - Here it is on a tee. If you're on it, hit it off. But let them know if you're not, so they can walk away.
Confused, you missed the signs. Communication is everything. Honest connections, make beautiful bonds, in turn, building the strongest people.
It's never too late to realize pleasing the crowd won't please you. We're all guilty of pervading the unknown, suppressing our truth. Holding it all in, life bursts into infinite possibilities once we decide to live through love.
Let it take you closer to those dreams.
Step back from distractions. Group chats and small talk all day, pillow talking through those DMs at night. What do you meme? Some people struggle with that love today. Fast times, it's easy to get a little lost. Feeling the aches of shallow love and waves of life. Feel free to be excluded, maybe the calm waters will be pulling from your direction.
In genuine interaction, you can feel the gratitude. You'll find reciprocal authenticity when creating your reality, so take some shots. They say less is more, but if that light keeps shining there, you have no right to remain silent.
Hands behind my back, hiding a full-house of cards.
It's all Love - just like it used to be. Real.
Real for you. Straight from me.
Once upon a time - you can be living out a fairy tale too. If you want magic, close your eyes and levitate. Turn that lens around and make it all about you.
You have a gift to give. Find it. Share it, then share more if it. It's found within.
Live through Love.
“Well, baby, if you got it, better flaunt it, let the liquor help you get up on it.” - 2pac ‘All About U’ (1996)Haha I know some of you only start speaking the truth after a few. Some, maybe just one or two. Those who go way back with me know 2pac was an early influencer in my life. Pas drit, probably. I'm only after the light. Known mostly just as a rapper, he reached the pinnacle of his own potential across multiple stages and masses - there's no doubt he spoke his truth. It spewed out of him. More celebrated after he was gone, I bet you know that feeling too. It's still all love, living apart.
Forgive the double-meanings - only highlighting differential interpretation, an understanding through your lens. Wise words, I heard Bobby the Oracle.
Open minds, I'll wrap this up.
All I'm pushing for is a focus within, find your truth. Be yours, first. Real love will always accept it. Clear out the noise because deep down, you'll know what to do. Just feel.
