Be Joyfully You

My advice is easy, and fun to do Encourage everyone you see. Show them the possibility of pure happiness By joyfully being yourself Hang out with your tribe It may not be your family That is okay; some of us have created a new one And believe me, they are wonderful! Go places you have always wanted to go. Put yourself out there – your real self, Not the “status quo” might accept you self. Leave that one at home under a bed Better yet – put that one in a box and toss it over a bridge Because you are now joyfully being yourself In everything you do. Every word you utter Every sentence you write. You are being true to you. Sure, some people will not accept it. Here is a key point – you do not have to kick them to the curb But ignore their eye roll. Better yet, tell them it hurt you. If they truly care about you, they will apologize and learn from it. If they do not care, it is time you moved on. Sure, they might be related, but they are not “family”. Family is the people who love watching you be joyfully you Go out there and dance you dance, sing your song Spin circles, jump in mud puddles, howl at the moon Life is too short to do anything except one thing…. Be joyfully and utterly you.
