A Few Words for Anyone Who Needs Them

And also for myself

You, yes you, you are an amazing person,
Don’t let anyone tell you any different!

Did someone say you are not worth it?!
Well, maybe that person is not worth your time!

You are not lazy, crazy, or too sleepy to do your best,
The world is waiting for you to shine!

Those piles of files, those dishes and dirty clothes that need cleaning,
You can finish it all off if you take it one step at a time.

You can complete the work that’s clogging up your schedule,
Because you have already done so much, what’s a few more?

If you feel overwhelmed, take a small break,
But, don’t let the break, break your concentration.

Take it one step at a time, you can do it!
You already have everything you need.

If you feel like something is missing, be creative,
You have the ability to find what you are missing.

You have made it to where you are because you are who you are,
Don’t lose yourself in your own spiral of self-doubt.
