When we are told what we cannot do
Are we meant to believe what the naysayers tell us
Or are we meant to follow our hearts and do what we want to
do anyway
When we are told we are not good enough
Are we meant to believe the naysayers and give up
Or are we meant to follow our hearts and believe we are good
enough
Are we meant to believe the limitations people try to put on
us
Colour within the lines
And be what others expect for us to be
Rather than who we are meant to be
Rather than recognizing there are no lines
So we can colour wherever the hell we want
Are we to meant to accept the roles we are given
Or are we meant to create our own roles
By following our hearts
and being who feels right for us
Who we are meant to be
Are we meant to believe the teachers
The elders
Or the preachers
That try to define us when we are young
Or are we meant to buck the tide and follow our hearts
By being true to who we are
By staying true to who we are
By following our hearts
And listening to our inner voice
Allowing us to break through
The limitations
Glass ceilings
And
predefined roles
To be who we are meant to be
What I am learning as I grow older
And wiser
And more open to listening to my gut
Is no one can tell me who and what I am
No one can define me or limit my potential
Unless I allow them
Unless I don’t know who I truly am
Unless I am still at an immature stage in my growth
Unless I allow ego in to cloud my judgment
Rather than to help my mind to flourish
I am also learning how important it is to choose
Carefully
Who we allow into our inner circles
Choose carefully
Who we talk to about our deepest desires
And wishes
And dreams
Because those people will help to build us
Rather than secretly plot to ruin us
There are many who smile in our faces
Pretend they are on our sides
Tell us what we want to hear
But then they don their shadow self behind our backs
And do everything they can to derail us
To unravel our dreams because they have none of their own
Because they are too busy living vicariously through others
Rather than figuring out who they are and what they want
They spend all their time
Trying to destroy others
Which fills them with hate and dark, dark energy
We are all here to be
To grow
To fulfill the dreams we came here to fulfill
But in order to do so
We have to work hard at our dreams
Surround ourselves with people that truly love us
That truly want the best for us
That will be honest with us
So we can grow and excel
So we can shatter the obstacles that present themselves along
the way
Because obstacles will always present themselves
Not to hinder us
But to test us to see if what we desire
Is truly what we want and need
And that’s why it is so important for us
To be the encouragers
To be the positive energy we want to attract
Because in doing so we create the space to allow
Love and light to flow freely into our lives
Because when we operate from a place of love and light
There are no obstacles
No barriers or limitations to stop us
Only to help us
To be the best we can be
Only to help us to shine
And be the love and light needed
Regardless of what others may say about us
Do to us
If we remember
We are the creators or the destroyers
Of our dreams
Of our lives as we want them to be
