Tears
Eyes are vocal,
tears have tongues,
And there are words
not made with lungs.

if I wait to be
perfect
before I love myself
I will always be
unsatisfied
and ungrateful
if I wait until
all the flaws, chips,
and cracks disappear
I will be the cup
that stands on the shelf
and is never used
Joyce Rupp
How can you be defeated, When you still have today?
What could possibly keep you down? Who could dare to hold you back?
When the promise of a new day looms?
The day that lies ahead has not yet happened,
and you can make of it whatever you will.
You are right here, right now, with everything you need
to make this your most successful day yet.
Every mistake you’ve ever made is now in the past.
Each one has taught you something.
Today is yours, free and clear, the grandest opportunity you’ve ever known.
The disappointments and regrets that once felt like such a burden,
now will give you the energy and desire to move ahead.
Today is more than enough promise, and you can make it yours.
