Stopping to Go

I'm inspired to write.
It's like the words that I wanted to come out my mouth...
But they didn't.
I recollect my thoughts at the end of every day.

I find myself learning more and more.
But I also find myself experiencing more and more.
Life is an eye opening thing.
I see some still with their eyes closed.

When we are ready to wake up,
we will face reality.
It's tough, I'll admitt.
We can work through it though.

Have you ever stopped to smell a flower?
Or look at a beautiful painting?
Things are all around us.
And we can see them.

There are so many ways to see things in life.
You just have to get out there and try...
The first step is scary...
But I promise every step gets easier.

People are beautiful.
I tell myself everyday...
To find something beautiful in everyone.
Even when we look for flaws.

Just because someone says they don't like something
about someone, doesn't mean you have to.
It's funny how the brain works.
Once we hear a flaw we try to find more.

Not only in other people, but in ourselves.
Can't we just be satisfied?
Never...
Well, that's what it seems like.

When you work for what you want...
Everything becomes more valuable to you.
Remember that...
Because you'll take care of everything more now.

Never look at yourself and point out flaws.
Point out your uniqueness.
Your "you-ness".
Some people may look the same...

But we are still individuals.
Who have feelings.
And thoughts.
And lives to live.

So live your life and be happy.
In the end that's what we all work for...

Happiness...
