“Did I say that I need you? Did I say that I want you? If I didn’t, I’m a fool, you see… No one knows this more than me.”

Positive thought of the day:

You are loved more than you think.

You have changed the life of many, without realizing it.  You have made someone smile, whether you realize this or not.  You have been loved wholeheartedly and you have also been let go of because it was better for you.  People have sacrificed things for you, people have wished you the best before going to bed.  People have prayed for you, they have lit candles in your name.  People have wished you all that life can offer you because in the heart of hearts they know you deserve it.

These people have come fluttering like butterflies into your life, or like tornadoes.  They have come softly like a cat strutting itself at night or a flash of a hummingbird looking for a flower.  Some people stay, growing roots as solid as trees and your stories will be whispered in trees.  Others come with the rumble of an African thunderstorm, announcing its power used only for your better good.  They can be lovers, friends, strangers that offer you wisdom you couldn’t find elsewhere.  They could be children that disarm you with the innocence behind a smile.  Sometimes, you are loved by creatures that aren’t human.  Animals know how to love too, and they also know how to make you know that you are loved.

If there is a seed I’d like to harvest today and always, is this.

You are loved.

Dark powers have strange ways of finding its way around your heart.  Don’t let it win.  You deserve better.  You are better than your ego, you are better than your insecurities, you are better than jealousy and envy.  You are better because you are unique.  There will never be another you in this world and the journey you are going through, will never be lived by anyone again.

You are a footprint, a song, a life.

Life.  

The very heart in you is beating at your pace, listen to it.  It is your guide.

The blood running through your veins, has known you since before time was what you knew.

Your eyes will tell you stories others can’t see.

Let your laughter be the echo generations hear for years among the trees.

Your hands can create and destroy.  But they can also express all the love and affection your words cannot.

Love.  Always love.  And remember, that you are loved.  Sometimes, more.  Sometimes, a little less.  But real love, unconditional love, is boundless and eternal.

It’s a footprint.
