Introversion is not a disease,
Please don't pity me when you find me sitting on my own.
Believe me when I say i'm happy on my own,
I appreciate your company but I love more time with me.
I've spent less time with myself and I realised it did me no good.
Do not feel bad for me,
Introversion is not a disease..
The feeling of feeling invisible;
Feels like dreams are impossible,
Because no one really sees you,
And it feels like about success,you have no clue,
And you feel you being praised isn't due,
It hurts,it feels hopeless
Until you realise that its not about who sees you,
Its about what you know is within you,
The power in your mind,the power of your thoughts.
And your will to rise above your own expectations,
Then you'll move from invisible to invincible.
Believe in yourself!!!
To be conceived,
Be born,
Breathe,
And then die?

Do not waste your life,follow your heart for it contains your joy and satisfaction..
If we die to rest in peace why don't we live to be busy enjoying every bit of life and peace of mind?
Isn't peace more useful now than in death? Well I'm not sure but peace is a need right now. Having peace is shutting out negativity, being the real you no matter what and embracing only positive vibes.
Love yourself,live your life.
Loving and accepting yourself will eventually put you in a place where you won't doubt yourself anymore
When you're called "fat" but you love yourself and you think you're ****;that shouldn't crash you.
Stories of greatness aren't fairytales,its all blood,sweat and tears,then courage
Of course at times,you may feel you've lost but as long as you're breathing and willing to take further steps;victory awaits.
When you're called stupid but you know you aren't and your dreams are important,you go ahead;don't give up
Besides;"stupid" is just an opinion!
It all starts from your mind;
Beauty,victory,courage,love.
It
  Is
    Well.
Its
   All
      Good.
These are not statements to use in order to live in denial of reality,
They're words to strengthen your heart when feeling hopeless..
It is well,
Thought it was the answer to my prayer,
I saw it,and started to like its short term effects but it faded.
Only then did I realise that it was just a mirage.
A reflection of my desire which I could see but not seize.
Indeed it was just a mirage..
The reflection of my miracle..how deep!
Maybe to test my reaction when I have it or to show me that there's something better.,
But it seemed so real,it was just a mirage though.
Jealousy;
Makes you feel like your heart is being eaten up,
And your stomach feels like its got a sink hole,
Makes you feel not good enough,
Gives you unnecessary hatred,
Makes you insecure for no reason,
It hurts only you,
Its cure?
Just take a self cleaning mind therapy and realise you're more than your feelings of rage and that you can overcome them.
Integrity and love filled,
Graced with a beautiful soul,
Greatest man to ever walk the earth..
Gentle and forgiving,
Humility unmatched,
And love unconditional.
JESUS CHRIST is the saviour.
Always ready to take us back as His own to love and to hold despite our faults..
The most powerful yet humble man to ever walk the earth,
The only man who walked this earth without sin yet condemned noone,
The only man who died for undeserving people;us.,
From His throne to this world of sin then to the grave just for you and I?wow!how great.!
Indeed!He is worthy of all praises,His greatness should be unveiled in all the earth,
His love is unfailing,none other will ever love me that much,.
So many times I lose my foothold,
The Lord stretches out His right hand,
And takes me aboard,
When I'm almost sinking and drowning,he holds me up and puts me on dry land.
Hopelessness and helplessness bring out the courage in me that cries out for help..
In humility and full surrender.
Jesus Christ saves.
Instead of drowning in pain,shame and sorrow. Let Him take your hand and give you hope,
Let Him carry your burdens and give you rest.
There is not substitute for His love.
Tasting blood,sweat and tears all at once,
Carrying a cross for undeserving fans,
That's how much He loves us,
Let's take Him wholeheartedly,and  quit taking His word as a fuss.

Bet it was possible for Him to fly,
But no,He just had to die
He was in flesh and blood,He felt the pain no lie,
And yes,He did cry.

Lo and behold!a new passage to God was made,
For our sins He had paid,
Our own duty was and still is to just accept that free precious gift of salvation,
And abandon the place of spiritual thirst,unrest and stagnation.
#JESUS_CHRIST_lives!!
Joy
Joy
Be happy,
Your joy may be contagious.
Judas never planned to betray Jesus but it happened because he had to,if he hadn't betrayed him he wouldn't have died for us. He could have delayed the process, if Peter hadn't denied Jesus he would have thought he was perfect,a saint of loyalty.
But some things happen to us because they just have to happen in order to push us to greater heights and to teach us things that we wouldn't have ever known,sometimes our destiny pointers come from the betrayals we face. It's some peoples role in your life to betray you in order to catapult you for greatness. For every pain there is gain,never lose hope. Trust the process of you becoming the better you waiting to become. No matter how much it hurts,hold on. Greatness is never easy to attain,it's from endurance and strength built through struggles.
Judge not a product of a path you have never travelled.
You never know whose day you'll make,
You never know whose lips you'll curve into a smile,
You never know whose heart you're holding together.
Write on writer!
So many keys to success!
You just have to be at the right door,
There's a bunch of options;just don't be careless,
You might drop your key to floor,
And fail to recover it,
So many keys but specific,
Each individual has their door and key of breakthrough
She won't let a thing pass her by,
Without wanting to have a touch.
To save herself she has to lie.
Daily she has a new catch,
Getting from others without asking,
More like trouble seeking.
But it seems her hands are out of control,
Her conscience no longer plays its role,
She's a slave to unsatisfaction,
She wants to have it all even without need.
Diagnosed but its no disease.
Her heart can be fixed and finally be at ease.

Its always beneficial and awesome to do something,
And actually know why you're doing it,
It makes more sense,
And gives more drive.

As  you  live* ,


Don't  forget


To   *
think
Ideas are usually splendid,
Because it kinda feels like you're in isolation when everyone around is asleep and you're awake.
And in a lonesome state,ideas creep in pretty well,leave out the bad ones.
Midnight creativity,is unique and fun and interesting,
Laughter is the cheapest remedy,
It releases pain killers,
Use it,.
It creates great memories,
Do it..
You don't always need comfort from others,
You're left alone to be strong,
Your emotions rage with no refuge,
So you can strengthen your nature,your character..
Sometimes,only you know what you need to hear.
Be there for yourself no matter how lonely it feels,because really you're all you've really got.
Procrastination is the biggest enemy of progress,
Negativity is the biggest of happiness,
Laziness must be the biggest enemy of success,
Let's do things right away,
Be positive,
Be hard working.
From birth to death,
Lessons pile up on lessons,
What you learnt when you were young,is what you apply as you grow older,
Its all lessons on lessons,
Step by step,
Little by little,
They advance....
Just like tiny habits become part of the character,
Tiny lessons become part of your philosophy.
Its all lessons on lessons.
Sometimes it's hard to let go and trust God,
It just feels like nothing is going to work out,
Taking matters into our own hands and taking control gives the comfort of knowing what's going on,
But really it only frustrates.
Leave it to your creator. He holds your destiny in His hands. He has never failed and will never fail.
Don't change for the world,
Be bold enough to be yourself
And watch the world bow to the real you,
Let it change to accomodate you,
You can't change to accomodate the world.
That's almost impossible.
Be the real you,keep your standards high and let nothing stop you.
You're beautiful,no beauty standard should rule your life.
If you're on the right track don't let anyone move you to the side. Keep moving.

Poem inspired by the song scars to your beautiful by Alessia Cara.
Is when you realize someone has been a big part of your life but you can't be with them anymore so you hand them over to history,
And move on to your destiny without a piece of them.
Do not let anger consume you when someone lies to you,
We all lie.
In the first place we lie to ourselves.
Actions speak louder they say, and that's true.
Before you realise a certain lie, you avoided the truth through actions,
We sometimes turn a blind eye, and when things become too big to be hidden we decide to see.
When someone lies to you, you lied to yourself first. For not being true to yourself and turning a blind eye.

People lie to us because we lie to ourselves in the first place. We want to see things as we wish they were not as they actually are.
You're not a mistake,
You're a product of love,
Whether born with everything,
Born with nothing,
Or born with some things,
One thing is certain;
You were born with a purpose.
And life is what is important,
As you live you can brighten the future and dim the ugly past.
You
                     either
                   grow or
                 depreciate.
The space
Between birth and
Death is life.
And the Question to be answered time after birth and before death is "am I really living?"
When I think of life,
I don't think of my life span,
Or me on this long road on a lonely journey
I imagine life as this whole world,the people,the species
The whole space the earth occupies and beyond,
So big and so wide,the choices and options are endless,
Just like everyone else,I'm no alien here
And I have my own space.
So then I think to myself,who am I not to dream big,
I mean;look at the greatness and opportunities in this place called a planet,
Aren't they all there for everyone to dive at and pursue?
So pardon me if my expectations seem "unrealistically high",
Wouldn't want to change them anyway.
If they hurt me;it'll all turn out as artistic inspiration,
If they work out well,,.well it'll still be inspiration.
For all the dreamers of BIG dreams!! :D
Don't just dream it,chase it ;)
Living is once on earth.
Live by your rules,
Don't hurt,don't hate.
Heal,love
Care but mind your own business.
Compare yourself to no one but yourself.
Don't force things,life has a way of making things work. What's meant to be will be,whenever,wherever,however.
Learn to enjoy the roller-coaster called life,
It's pretty fun.
Sometimes go "happy-go-lucky"
Enjoy the ride,
Because it turns out to be quite short.
Either life is full of surprises or we're usually in denial of reality...
Either life is full of surprises or we're usually in denial of reality...
Sometimes we wonder why things happen the way they do,
Its not always because of what we've done wrong,
Sometimes its about what we have to learn to do right,
Things go amiss sometimes so that we learn to appreciate the good times before,
And also to learn how to handle situations,
No situation is ever in vain.
But other times,things go amiss because of the bad choices we made,in this case we ought to accept our wrongs and make things right atleast.
Life is too short to live by peoples opinions,
Choose your path and walk it..
You may be different,
Don't worry...you're not supposed to be like everyone else.
Life
              is
     a
                  series

         of
                             choices
Chances,

             and

                      results  ,.
Life has so many summaries,u pick on one which best fits your life.
Life is so precious that it has no price,
Value it,
Keep it safely,
Not that you shouldn't take risks but be realistic,
Once it slips out of you,
You're gone forever,
Don't take it for granted,use it while you still have it.
Use it to add value that will live on even when you're gone.
Live a life of fulfillment,
Follow your heart,
Run after your dreams and capture them,
Nothing should stop you because you only have one life to live with choice,
Choose well
Live well..
Oh you can actually read it from the bottom as well.
When life gets tough,
Hope lies in the future,
When your present is dark,
Create hope through your vision of the  future,
Think about today as something that will pass and look forward to a better tomorrow,
It may seem too long,
But with the power that lies in faith and your mind,
You can make it through it all.
And when you feel like speaking but your voice isn't coming out,
Talk to God,He listens ; even to the innermost voice in you.
Being well principled,
Is called "old skool",
And its not easy to hold on tight
To good principles,but even when you manage you're called a fool,
Its like the tv,social media have really become the devils tool,
Natural beauty is called ugly,
Its said only make up can fix you greatly,
That's the ******* we're beginning to consume,
I think we need to pause,rewind to the time of good principles,then resume.
An ideal body image is set,
And if you don't measure up to that,your looks aren't great,
The question is who's anyone,
To set up such standards for everyone?
Accept and love who you are,
Make your own rules,
Don't let anyone define who you are.
I'm alive,
I'm here to thrive
With nothing to do with the word connive..
I've got to live smart,
And love with my whole heart,
Be focused as though in a game of dart,
Be creative and live by my gift of art....
One gift we take for granted is life,
And we only realise its short
When nearing the end.
No matter what you go through,
Believe in the power of time,
Believe that where there is life there is hope.
Just holding on a day more,
An hour more,a minute more can make the difference.
Your breakthrough could be the next minute or second.
Hold on and stay strong.
Your life was never meant to be ended by yourself.
Hold on a little bit longer. You are never alone no matter how lonely it gets.
People going through what you are going through are with you,
Stay strong and be their source of hope and light one day.
Life is a wonder,
We have life but its still hard to fathom.
Any second can bring a new experience,
And all things can happen,
Anything is possible;that we know.
But still find it tough to believe in a miracle,
We get what we want and next thing,
We want something else..
There is never satisfaction so i wonder if there is one meant to be; destiny.
We reach but never arrive,
Till the day we die,we keep on striving .
When are we ever going to rest and just enjoy life and not worry about a thing?,
We found life this way and i guess we'll leave it this way,
Taking each day as it comes and finding fulfillment in accomplishing goals day by day..
Life must strengthen us,
Every experience should make us better,
Either stronger or kinder,
Understanding and wiser.
Pain teaches patience, and that time heals..
Healing teaches the miraculous,
Happiness teaches appreciation..
Life is a purpose, no day goes by in vain.
Life is cold,
Oh maybe life isn't cold.
We people are,
Making life miserable for each other.
Hating and not accepting that we were meant to love not hate.
Hate just hurts,its no good feeling.
It brings us misery and lures us into thinking its strength.
Getting rid of human life so fast!like it didn't take a process to be born. Life is sadder these days,
The news is so energy sapping.
Its hopeless,the only hope is love.
Love,accept,respect,judge less.
