#MyLifeAsAHuman #MyThoughtsMyWords - You-love

Things, situations, opportunities, circumstances, jobs, people will come and go...

Some will impact you... Some will leave a bitter taste in your mouth, some will leave you with lessons... Memories...like puffs of smoke that linger in the recesses of your mind.

Some will become a permanent fixture, never leaving...even if it appears they have. And some you will cherish forever...simply because of the impact they have had.

At the end of the day however, you are left with just you. Surrounded by bits and pieces of varied experiences. But it's yourself that you are left with...just you....and nothing else.

So remember that while it's nice to appreciate all these different things that have contributed to who you are... Never forget the importance of 'you'. Love yourself so much, that no one or no 'thing' can cause you to lose the value of yourself...
The value of 'you'.

You're not expected to have all the answers. You're not expected to be perfect.

Just be perfectly good with loving 'you'.

-Y. Salmon

#MyLifeAsAHuman - Entry# 984 - My Symphony

I'm sitting here gazing out into a world of possibility and purpose and I chide myself for being a coward sometimes.  I get mad at myself for doubting as much as I do, for hesitating and finding excuses. I look back and remember when I was a fearless dreamer, blatant in my belief, obnoxious in my certainty.... And I wonder.... Where did she go? Where did that girl go? Was she killed off by cynicism? Knocked down by reality.... Captured by adulthood? Defeated by life?... I shake my head, for it is better than hanging it in shame. I steady myself for the mourning of my past self.... And I think... Am I but a shell of my former self? Void of truth and inspiration?  Am I so empty a vessel that my noise is nothing but a deafening yet unnoticeable silence?... These are my fears that nip at my confidence, that drown my rising strength. These are the fears I hold on to, to feed my pity party and excuse myself from wanting... From dreaming... From doing. These are ...

#My Life as a Human - Entry #13 - Dreamer's Declaration

I have all this nervous energy coursing through my veins. I can feel anticipation, anxiety, fear, restlessness...and Serenity? My mind boggles at the body's capacity to withstand so much at the same time, in a matter of mere minute seconds, balled up and ready to explode. How is this possible? Why is it possible? My mind races, so much to do, so much to get done. My dreams are no longer secrets, my dreams are no longer 'dreams'. They have morphed, capsized and regained consciousness. Life has been breathed...resurrected... I have dreamed, no! I have breathed (exhales) life into my dreams. Finally. Finally I am no longer an escape artist. An escapist of my dreams, of my fears, of failure, of rejection. Finally I am a dreamer realized. Recognized. No longer hospitalized. No longer imprisoned. I have done what was once thought impossible. I have set fire to my dreams. I have let them out and commanded, no! Demanded, that they roam free and wide and fierce! I have declar...
