Every breath you take,
Everything you create is yours.
I’m not keeping score,
but if I took a tour
of who you are,
I’d tell you, you’re a star!
You were specifically formulated
to fill the perfect spot slated
just for you.
Your uniqueness should be celebrated,
lauded and appreciated,
it’s true.
And if others are unkind.
Wipe that from your mind
Their words, their actions
belong to them; need no reaction
to come through.
You are the best beyond compare.
There’s no one better anywhere
at being You,
if you allow yourself to.
I’ll applaud the loudest
and be the proudest
if you’ll only be
your own ‘just me’.
Wishing you a very happy Christmas, New Year and may every minute be filled with wonder, joy, love and laughter.
You are a shining star! 😀

This is very affirming, yet reminiscent of a Dr. Seuss book–but a very sweet one (Oh, the Places You’ll Go).

I hope this is a happy note but I’m not sure. When I open up your post to read it I find that you have a “shrinking blog.” It makes me laugh anyway. I am reading it and keeps getting smaller and smaller and smaller. Haha! Maybe it’s the airwaves.
