When things don't work out how we thought it's ok because it allows us to learn. I am grateful for the sunrise and grateful that I was able to be up early enough to see it. It reminded me that after a dark night the sun will always rise and bring light. It's a new day and a chance to become who I want to be and to move forward from the past. It's ok that my life has once again not gone as planned. It's ok that I was hurt and rejected because I learned and it's now giving me another chance to learn to be ok and confident in myself again. And that can be a challenge. Sometimes later in the day I forget that I've had chance at a new day and dwell on yesterday...but then the sun rises again in the morning and reminds me again that I have a fresh start to be myself and love every second of my life and make it better than yesterday. The only time we have power to do anything is right now. We can't change the past and our decisions now determine the future. So I have to choose what I want to be right now and I have to choose to be me and be ok and in love with being just me even if it's not enough for other people. No one else can be me and I have something to offer no one else does.
Michael Franti and Spearhead, Hey Now Now:
Be who you are nothing more nothing lessAnd let the beauty that you love be the very bestSing praises to the highest with your feet on the groundAnd reach for your brother with the words that you sound andDon't let mistakes be so monumental, andDon't let your love be so confidential, andDon't let your mind be so darn judgmentalAnd please let your heart be more influentialBe thankful for all the Spirit providesAnd be thankful for all that you can see without eyesGive thanks to music that keeps us aliveAnd give thanks to all the DJs worldwide
Other people don't determine your worth. You decide your worth. Be the greatest you that you can be. When people reject your efforts or your love it's ok. Because you can still be worth great amounts if you believe in yourself. You have something to offer the world that no one else does. So don't let rejection and misunderstanding or hate stop you. Share your joy and passion with others and be nothing more or less than yourself. Because you are great and nothing can stop that.
