iBelieve

I received a note today.
It wasn’t expected but indeed a random act of kindness.
Solicitous, rousing, and sympathetic in release.
Its timing was indispensable.
As I read.
Charily.
Line by Line.
Word for word across the page.
Till the very end.
Renewed by the content.
I find joy in what has emerged.
The pursuit of happiness.
Success.
Love.
And the desire to dare the unattainable.
As life continues to flourish right before our eyes.
We only hope for the best.
We only dream of tomorrow.
But what we hold dear mirrors a puzzle yet to be completed.
A lesson unlearned.
Strangers naïve to their predestined amity.
Which leads to discovery?
iBelieve.

Simply Put

As usual I am full of passion.
Trying to make sense of everything is quite a convoluted task.
I muse whether it is even worthwhile.
Who knows.
One day maybe it will all make sense.
My life.
My purpose.
My calling is mind-boggling.
I cogitate if I’m going through the motions or carrying out my duty and responsibility (breathe in, exhale) which is to love.
Though broad in array and unspecific in detail, it fabricates an interesting reflecting of my identity.

Simply put, Love is me.

Here I Stand

Yesterday I celebrated yet another birthday.
I woke up feeling bad, depressed, and lonely but as the day evolved my mood shifted and I was doing aiight.
It is interesting how moods can change easily but people do, too.
Life is hard.
This statement is true but limited.
I choose to believe we all have choices.
And sometimes we find ourselves in a mess or floored with joy.
With this in mind, it is I who constructs a canvas exhibiting my sequence.
I am a light.
Exemplifying hurt and pain but radiant with passion –truth.
My bad day is my good day.
Sickness surrenders to wellness.
Hate shadows love.
Yesterday turns into today.
Mistakes are gems.
You can’t rush perfection.
So be.
Happy.
Love more.
Give.
Smile.
Practice patience.
Help your neighbor.
Live in the moments.
Express Honesty.
Breathe.
Do the impossible.
BECOME.
I say all this because life can be short.
We never know where life will take us.
But what we can do is make the most of what we have and that is life.
I look forward to my next birthday.
I choose to believe I will wake up more superior than when I woke up yesterday.
