Just Be You

You can not be perfect because perfect does not exist. Even what you think is perfect is just that. A thought. No more no less. Often we mess up our destiny trying to follow what society thinks is perfect. When in all actuality we become the best version of ourselves when we just be ourselves. Whether it’s the happy us or the sad us. If we pay attention to ourselves our bodies will tell us what we need and maybe who we should stay away from. Other than just common decency. Treat others the way you want to be treated, and then we all could be happy as long as we lead with joy and just pure peace. That’s when we are at our calmest. When we are at pure peace.
But instead, we feel that we are weird if we stand out and nobody will understand us so we need to blend in. Therefore we put out our flame or it barely glows as we fall back into this reality where so many people are in pain and don’t know which way to go because people have been telling them to go away their whole lives that they knew was the wrong path for them just so they could feel love from the people that they believe are their family just because they share blood. When in actuality we all share the same blood. Then we wonder why we have never been happy in our lives because it’s not ours to have. We are just the puppets of our circumstances. What a sad realization.
But even with that being said there still can be hope if we shake ourselves out of this fake existence. It may be harder to get to your true dream cause you have to backtrack some to get to your true path but you can do it if you have enough faith, patience, and discipline. The discipline part was always hard for me. My faith is strong that’s the only reason I keep going. My patience has gotten thin but I still have it nonetheless. But that discipline kills me. For a person that prides herself on usually going by the book knowing that your lack of discipline is crazy. But unfortunately true. I think it’s the energy for me. I already stretch myself so thin for others especially my kids, that when it’s time for my dreams I don’t have the energy and therefore lack discipline. But even with me being me I’m still striving for my dream of love, peace, and joy. I deserve it. You do too. You just gotta remind yourself sometimes cause you get sidetracked because of “life” and forget who you are meant to be. And by all means that’s not perfect. That’s just you being the best you that you can be. That why you are hear in the first place. That’s why you made it. All the eggs and the sperm in the world and you made it so just be you. Give yourself what you deserve. I know I’m going to stop wearing myself then and find my joy and I pray you do the same.
