Shine for Yourself

We can’t change how others view us.

But we could change how we view and feel about ourselves.

Keep that inside light bright and let it illuminate outward.

That illumination will set you ablaze and free.

Shine for yourself, not for the world.

Live a life that is worthy with meaning, not engulfed with endless past miseries.

Shine for yourself, not for others.

The light is always within you, keep shining!

Only You

Everywhere I go.

Everything I see.

Everything I do.

I see “you” only.

You light the path, when darkness falls upon this earth.

You shelter me from the rain and cold, providing me warmth.

You give me hope, when all is lost.

Only you, can color my world with sunshine and rainbows.

Only you , are the one that gives me meaning in life.
