Truth

This life is what you make it. No matter what, you’re going to mess up sometimes, it’s a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you’re going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends – they’ll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything – they’re your true best friends. Don’t let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they’ll come and go too. And babe, I hate to say it, most of them – actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can’t give up because if you give up, you’ll never find your soul mate. You’ll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn’t mean you’re gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don’t, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life’s a beautiful thing and there’s so much to smile about. ~Marilyn Monroe

"A Beautiful Mess" by Jessica Michelle

A beautiful mess.
I have become.
Wanting so much
but coming undone.
Fighting myself
to win the war within.
A greedy heart
has become my sin.
Pull myself back
time to watch the clock.
My tears are typical
and easy to mock.
The past, it haunts me
I try to escape.
Flashbacks from yesterday
I try to reshape.

A beautiful mess
Its all the same.
We are all just players
in this casual game.
Words spoken too fast
or not at all.
The heaviest of hearts
have the farthest to fall.
Catching a glimpse
of the night to come.
Wishing on stars
that have already gone numb.
Breaking the silence
with a voice in the dark
My heart screams out loud
trying to make it's mark.

A beautiful mess.
I've come to decide
More than what you see
there's so much inside.
Whispers mean nothing
when spoken from afar.
Challenging words
no longer leave a scar.
Forget the tear drops
that have fallen like rain.
Simple moments from the past
no longer carry pain.
Eternity's the only promise
one can ever understand.
Love is the only answer
to the matter at hand.

"Sunrise" by Jessica Michelle

Sunrise
Your in my sight
The power you have over me
On the horizon
All that is right
And not just what seems to be

Sunrise
Your on my mind
With nothing in between
Morning to darkness
Darkness to light
Its so much more than it seems

Sunrise
You lift my soul
And carry me in between
Moments we've forgotten
That once took their toll
remembering all I've seen

Sunrise
You've brought me here
To the place I long to be
Dreamt for my heart
to see clear
For you to come rescue me

Sunrise
I've taken you back
And feel safe to set you free
To light the way
For all that I lack
You've given me faith in me.

Shine on... just a thought.

It's so easy in this day and age to lose the light that has the ability to shine so bright inside of us. I know from personal experience just how easy it is to get caught up in all of the "what ifs" and the "should haves" of the world and lose sight of all the amazing things that are right in front of us. Why do we let all of the negative things that could happen get in the way of us seeing all of the amazing things that are happening?
         If we were to every day take a step back and really take a look at all of the beauty that surrounds us.... take a look at all of the smiles that are sent our way... take a look at all of the flowers that are blooming... if we just took a few minutes out of each day to realize just how much life we have left to live, I think we would stop looking at all of the life that we are "losing out on". We might start to see all of the blessings that we gain each day.

Truth.

It's time to sit back.... take a breath... and realize all of the amazing things we have right in front of us.
