DEPEND

Depend on yourself, for all your needs, never put all of yourself at the need of someone else. 
Some depend on others, letting us not have choices, leading us to make choices that are not are own. 
Make your own choices, love yourself, grow, and depend on number one, that is yourself. 
Depend on you, grow, learn and make it all true, so you never become blue, and have to live a life of untrue. 
Depend on your mistakes, they will lead you to learn, they will lead you to try again and again so you will become a pro on making yourself happy and live a life of calm without any storms. 
Storms may come but with all storms, you will learn how to pick up the pieces and carry on. 
Maybe some of life will be come hard, but if you depend on others, you will never learn how to depend on yourself in life. 
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
