The only way 2 feel beautiful  in your own skin is through acceptance,
Acknowledge all your flaws and embrace them,
Find that one thing you love the most about yourself and let it strengthen you as it overshadows the flaws,
Know that perfect is what you are;just the way you are because your creator makes no mistskes,
Live your life in freedom,free your soul and inspire others,
If you're doing the right thing and you're on the right page and you're happy,it doesn't matter what people may say,
You deserve to be happy and the only person responsible for your happiness is yourself..



To be continued..

You*  were  born  beautiful,
From  your  head  to  your  toes,
Your  hair  to  your  nose,
And  your  complexion  to  your   supposed   "flaws",
You  don't  need  to  bleach  your  skin,
Just  ­to  fit  in ,
Flaunt  what  you  own ,
Let  the  doubts  about  your  body  be  gone ,
Beauty  is  in  your  nature ,
You  just   have   to  build  it , nurture  it .

Be** the best version of yourself,
Do what you have to do to be what you want to be,
Finally have what you desire.

Hope for sweet dreams,
Pray for protection,
Believe tomorrow will come and be better,
Shut my eyes and let my mind wander off to dream land.

Be grateful,
For as long you eat and have clothes on,count yourself opportuned.
No matter what you get in life,you'll never count it enough until you become grateful for the little things.
We envy money so much not realising it can't buy happiness nor a spot in eternal life,it can't buy love nor peace.
All that money can buy is vanity.

Embracing the power of thoughts,
Believing in the power of dreams,
Having ink as a way of release,
Yearning to put all feelings on paper,
Getting satisfaction from your written words,
And excited by new words.
Writing it all without fear of being "judged",
Writing because you can,
Writing because you should,
Writing because you must.

Be kind to yourself,
You are the one you listen to the most.
You are the one you live with every second,
You are your greatest asset.
Be kind to yourself.

When you complain about having no nice shoes,
Think of someone with no feet and be thankful..
While you complain about having a few clothes,someone out there is dying of being cold..
When you start wishing you had a better family,think of someone who is alone on the streets and be thankful,.
When you dare think that your life is horrible,think twice because there are people going through worse pain and be thankful..
What you may take for granted now someone wishes they had and its their prayer request,be thankful..

Sometimes
You
Have
To,
Hold your own hand,
Pat your own back,
Blow your own horn..
Not to be selfish,
But to learn to be there for your self when no one else is there for you.

The best thing about having
big dreams is that no one else has to believe in them for them to happen,its just you.
They're yours alone,your responsibility.
If people frown upon them,
That's their business
When you work towards making them come true,its for sure they aren't meaningless.
So don't give up!

I'm referring to actual medicine -

They say the best medicine tastes bitter,
So you have to take it to get better,
How I wish the word was sweeter!!
As in "the best medicine tastes sweeter",,
So what happens is;the little pill,
Goes into my blood stream with great thrill,
Unlike me when taking it in ; with no zeal,
But we thank God
For the brains that create those precious pills of "gold".

Bold and beautifully painted,
Lovingly created,
Artistically put together,
Coloured with loving thoughts.
K**eenly complete.

When with more than enough,
You're capable of giving someone else enough,
Fighting poverty isn't all about pushing the UN to act,
When in fact,
You may be capable.
If not monetarily able,
The least we can do is appreciate what we have and pray for the unstable,
Prayer misses no point,
It makes connections even where there seems to be no possible joint.

My soul wills,
But my body gets weak,
Sometimes I wish they could always work together,
My soul wants what's right
My body;what's wrong,
But the body usually wins because it carries the soul,
Maybe the soul wishes to leave the body at times,who knows?
But despite all this,life goes on
Maybe one day I'll learn to put my body and soul in harmony.

Some say its an opportunity to be creative,
Others find that statement manipulative,
Well coming to think of it,
Boredom feels like the mind is blank more like a plain sheet,
Ideas fail to run,
Unless you decide you want to get the boredom done,
Boredom can only help get creative
If you decide you want to be creative.

No matter what you've been through,
Or what you're going through,
You're deeply loved and you deserve love.
Many may have broken your heart,
But as long as you're still breathing,
It means you survived,you're a fighter and you're a winner.
Heartbreaks hurt,but they don't ****... They make you stronger.
We need to grow stronger in order to strengthen others,so when your heart breaks and you survive,learn from it and teach it.
You're deeply loved and you deserve love.
If you give up on love you're depriving someone of the great love you're capable of offering having learnt through your experiences.

In the process of trying to fix something you didn't break,you end up cutting yourself,hurting yourself.

If you would have me love once more,
The blissful age of love restore;
From wine's free joys, and lovers' cares,
Relentless time, who no man spares,
Urges me quickly to retire,
And no more to such bliss aspire.
From such austerity exact,
Let's, if we can, some good extract;
Whose way of thinking with this age
Suits not, can ne'er be deemed a sage.
Let sprightly youth its follies gay,
Its follies amiable display;
Life to two moments is confined,
Let one to wisdom be consigned.
You sweet delusions of my mind,
Still to my ruling passion kind,
Which always brought a sure relief
To life's accurst companion, grief.
Will you forever from me fly,
And must I joyless, friendless die?
No mortal e'er resigns his breath
I see, without a double death;
Who loves, and is beloved no more,
His hapless fate may well deplore;
Life's loss may easily be borne,
Of love bereft man is forlorn.
'Twas thus those pleasures I lamented,
Which I so oft in youth repented;
My soul replete with soft desire,
Vainly regretted youthful fire.
But friendship then, celestial maid,
From heaven descended to my aid;
Less lively than the amorous flame,
Although her tenderness the same.
The charms of friendship I admired,
My soul was with new beauty fired;
I then made one in friendship's train,
But destitute of love, complain.

A candle brings about light,
But with time,it goes out
As the wax melts,
As much as it would love to stay and live on,
It remains with no choice,
I bet it doesn't feel bad about melting,
Because its doing what its supposed to do;lighting up,
Applying that to us;as we live we get emptied,
If we're doing what we're supposed to do we're emptying our hearts,
And with time,you'll have given out the whole of you,
When you're done,you're free to go.

I have you wrapped around me,
My head,my body,my soul...
Not for anyone but for me,
You're special,
You're golden and rare,
Having you in mind is no easy dare,
But its worth it,
You're purity,
You're innocence,
You are cleanliness.
You are undefiled.
You're possible.

Babies are angelic beings,
So pure and innocent,
Little,and can be trained into becoming great human beings,
They're beautiful and magnificent,
An empty notepad can't be filled with no action,
It has to be written in
Same applies to a young child,
Fill them with good things,
Good manners,morals and life lessons,
Not when they've "grown enough"
The earlier the better,

Oh how sweet you are!
My mind says you're bad for my teeth but my tongue enjoys you,
You make my heart jump
If lips tasted like you I'd kiss people every hour perhaps every minute :D
Your looks enticing,your smell intoxicating,
You're a truly tasty beauty,.

Life is entirely made up of choices,
And in making these choices,there will always be different voices,
All possible but holding different consequences
And not making your own choices when you grow up may lead to regret,
The realisation may even seem too late,
But in the long run,
We end up knowing that learning from mistakes is the best though not always fun.
So as you make your choices,
Analyse their consequences.

Opening the eyes of your heart,
Seeing things as they are supposed to be,
Being clear about what you want in life,
Setting goals,
Running after them,
Creating deadlines but not giving up if things don't work as planned..
Knowing that life won't always give you what you want,
And realising that whatever life throws at you,you can handle because life itself is enough hope..

Uniquely approach life,
Yours is different from everyone else's.
Comparison is a thief of joy for sure because we compare ourselves to people who aren't us.

Comparing yourself to others,
Seriously robs you of joy,
Accept your life as it is,
Love what you own,
There's no satisfaction in comparison,
You'll always think you're not good enough,
Compete with yourself,
Compare yourself with who you were yesterday,
Live in your life,
Be happy,be content and make improvements day by day.

No one completes you.
Don't ever esteem someone that highly.
People change,
Be complete on your own,so that even when your heart breaks, your whole being is not torn apart.

Is confidence really about having a perfect body in the eyes of society??
Uhm no no,I don't think so..
Confidence comes when you accept and decide to love yourself no matter what,
It comes when you prepare yourself enough for that which you yearn for,
Confidence builds when you're dressed according your hearts desire not societal trends or labels,
Its about you!!just you,don't give people the rights to live life for you by telling you what they think is good,you have a mind of your own afterall.Just make sure your discernment is wise enough to give you no regrets,.

Conception occurred when you realised your dream,
Its now living in you,you carry it.
Carry it well and carefully.
Keep it away from toxins that come through distractive vices,
Before success is delivered,
Labour must be undergone,the labour is the road through which winners must pass.. Its the tests of strength and character. Its the hard learnt lessons.Its the purifying furnace.
It only burns,never kills.Might leave scars but that's good because every scar you earn is a tattoo for your history.

Even if you don't have it,
Fake it till you make it!

In a crazy world,
The only hope is God.
Unthinkable things happening,
Morals disappearing.
People acting like animals,
So then I wonder what role the animals will actually play,
I wonder if life will exist 50 years from now,
We're polluted!
Our minds are dirtened,and we embrace them like that.
Peace will never prevail until the art of love is learnt.

Creation is to purpose,
As evolution is to inconvenience.

Creating your thoughts into
Reality,letting your imaginations
Escape and form
Art to always live
Through your life and for
E*ver.

You came as a sweet  surprise ,
Thoughts of you kept me up all night till I saw the sun  rise ,
I didn't see our end  coming ,
Thought we'd last because what we shared had no  timing ,
My heart is seriously  wounded ,
My soul feels out of place so  unwanted .
Like I'll never love  again ,
Oh my love,why did you have to betray me?you've placed on my mind such a huge  burdain .

I was told to try it out,
That everyone was doing it,
That it was awesome and the sweetest thing ever,
They told me the risks behind it were a myth,
I did it!
My very first time,
Used no protection,
Was drunk and couldn't recall how it even felt,
What a waste,
It was supposed to be awesome,
But it wasn't,
I decided to think for myself
And change my ways after that day,
I went for ***/AIDS testing,
Lo and behold,I was given a second chance,
I was negative,
Though I'm not so sure yet,it could be that I tested during the window period!
