Second Best

-
I have always been striving to do, to be second best 
I just realized this 
And I have subconsciously been doing this on purpose 
Not thinking I deserve this 
Like a subconscious punishment for myself 
Because I was always programmed to believe that I was unimportant, 
Always unvalidated 
So I purposely do just under the optimal best 
But only allowing myself to be second best, runner up standards because I didn't believe that I ever deserved to be on top, 
That's got to stop 
Best was for other people, not me 
Or was it really because I was told that was all I could be? 
And thus that's mostly what it always has been for me...
So now I'm scared to be the best, 
To put myself to the test 
But-lightbulb moment -
NOT ANYMORE 
I figured it out, without a doubt, 
Now I'm finally going to settle the score! 
From now on, I will strive to be much more! 
More than ever before 
Because myself, I have been learning to adore 
And WOW! Who could ask for anything more?.....

DON'T THINK -JUST BE To truly love yourself is one of the hardest things to do. And when you truly love yourself, love for the world comes too... SOLITUDE PROVOKES GRATITUDE  Your current condition is NOT your conclusion... BE AWARE OF PERCEPTION DECEPTION...

Divinity

Each one of our souls is a facet on the diamond of God. When we speak to another person we are speaking to another version of Divinity. We need to speak to them in a way that helps them remember the Divinity within themselves. When we listen to another person, we need to listen to them like they are a part of Divinity helping us to remember the Divinity within ourselves. When you look at another human being as not being separate from you but just another facet on the diamond of Divinity, then we should never feel alone. The interconnectedness is the reality...
