"Only Yourself"

It's the ripple effect...

One action causes waves of motion...

We are only as blind as we want to be...

Pay attention to those who bring hostility and anger to your boundaries

Because this is the final line drawn...

Found there is the edge of understanding

Where their respect for you now ends...

Sometimes its not the pain, but who it comes from that hurts the most

The reality is bitter...

And brings forth a change to everything...

When all else fails we remember the words

You cannot change someone's behaviour by loving them or explaining it to them harder

You cannot stay where you are not welcomed

You must know without any hesitation that you are worthy of something other than second guessing

Be only where your presence matters...

The simple truth is, we are all healing from wounds and scars we never asked for

We do our best with what we have been given

It's one day or moment at a time...

As you are reminded of how ironic it is

That a lot of the time the darkness is where you begin to see the light

Just like a seed planted, you need both to grow...

And sometimes there is no other option to be given or taken

To move and carry on from what once held you back and silent

Tolerance has a limit...

Love and care can and do end...

And second chances are not an automatic given...

Never mistake a persons patience for permission of disrespect

There is a place that is held above all else..

One that should never to be trespassed against...

You can only control your actions

And the reaction to it all

You own only yourself...

Keep your heart beautiful...

The world within you needs more of this.
