Spool of Wisdom Thread
Fear of the unknown
shouldn't pinion your wings;
forge ahead!
Remember this incontrovertible truism:
you're always stronger
than you give yourself credit for!
It never matters
what people you don't know
from a can of paint think of you;
what's infinitely more important
is what you think of yourself.
Believe what you believe...
There's nothing wrong with
stubbornly sticking to your convictions.
You can summit
all of life's mountains
with steadfast self-belief.
Your doubtful mind is
a noose hovering above your head.
It falls to your neck
only if you allow it.
Always entertain high hopes
and possibilities.
It's better to try -- despite risks involved --
than rot in regret's dungeon.
When licked by misfortune's tongue,
cling to your faith
like virgin leaves does to a tree.
It carries you through
every time.
