Lord, Should I Do Better Or Keep Acting A Fool?

The art of life

My purpose is bigger then my feelings

My art will live longer then me

What I create is important

What I do is important

My existence

My experience

All reflect themselves

In my art

In my words

In my smile

In my walk

My presence

My life reflects through me

Through my pores

Through my finger tips

It has lasting implications

Whatever I leave here

Someone else may one day find

If it’s my kids

My friends

Or a stranger

My something

Will hold value

In another’s hands

Eyes

Ears

Heart

And mind

My life matters

Because it effects others

Your life matters

because it effects others

Life is valuable

Life is not lived alone

You are never truly alone

You are constantly surrounded by the presence of other

In the clothes you wear

To the streets you walk across

You move

You breathe

The same matter

That someone else once did

You stand because someone made it so

You have a path to travel because it was paved for you

The footsteps you leave will guide the next person

The steps you leave will let someone know you were there

We matter

Our futures matter

We are futures

Just as we will be past

Just because they were with you through your depression, doesn’t mean they have to stay with you through your progression.

Some of us stay with people because we don’t want to abandon them at a low point.

Some of us stay with people because we were with them through such low points and now that their doing better we feel like we earned the prize of their growth that came at the end.

Sometimes when we are the depressed and someone sticks with us we feel like we can’t leave because that person was with you when you were your worst.

But we have to evaluate.

If your growth means you have outgrown the relationship, then it’s okay to leave.

If that person was with you at your lowest but you don’t think they can help you reach your highest then it’s okay to bounce.

Part of growth is being able to recognize what you need, and then taking steps to obtain it.

If a person has reached the end of a relationship , then it’s okay to move on.

Don’t worry about being polite.

Worry about what’s best.

If the new you isn’t 100% here then it’s because the new you should be somewhere else.

If you are trying to think of ways to make something work then your ignoring the ease that will come with the right thing in your near future.

Look at the tortoise and the hare.

That bunny got too comfortable , he held himself back. He kept stopping to look at the flowers, take naps, and do eveything but move forward.

And the tortoise!

He may not have gotten there fast but he made it to his destination right on time.he got their right when he was suppose to. He knew where he needed to go and he didn’t let anyone or thing stop him from moving forward.

Now this could be your partner, your job, your friends, your family, your location, your strongholds.

Whatever is holding you back, leave it.

When you see what you could be

When you see where you could be

Once you know that your potential is endless

Don’t stop

Take yourself to the end.

The world will keep moving forward with or without you. But where do you wanna be ? Still holding onto something at the starting line, or jumping through the valleys of freedom and possibilities at the finish?

Let go

What is meant to be will be.

I’m gonna sub coffee for water and throw In a song and dance.

Why do we care about our images

why do other people care about the images they surround themselves with

how do we let images effect us

what do images invoke

what images do we evoke

how does my existence coincide with my image

what does my image say

what do I want my image to say

how does it make you feel

how does it make me feel

does it matter

why do we think it matters

why do we make people think it matters

what matters

the balance or the imbalance 

the presentation or the thing

why does the idea matter more than the truth

does it

to whom does it speak to

to whom does it matter

me or you

Some days it’s hard to pull yourself out of hole you didn’t realized you dug for yourself.

Some days it’s hard to breathe

Some days it’s just hard

But

Some days it’s worth it

Some days you won’t cry

Some days you realize your worth.

Some days you see yourself shining through.

Some days you can grab your own hand and pull yourself out of your own hole.

Either way it’s okay

It can and will be okay

Each day is a new day

Each day is still a blessing
