Write a letter or poem to your younger self about why he or she shouldn’t worry about the future 1 years ago
Free Soul
Worry.
A tradition of the mind
that was not made for the soul.
A symptom of the lost
who forgot to come home.A place where the mind runs free,
basking in the joy and abundance

My little darling,
You do not have to be found.
For you are right where you need to be
in every moment
of every day
exactly where you are
letting your soul run free.So do not worry.
For you will lose yourself
Running around each day
thinking how could this be?
When all along
All you had to do
Was put trust in your hand
and let life take the lead.Voting is closed

Write a letter or poem to yourself about what you love about this chapter of your life 1 years, 2 months ago
The Fire Within
Oh what a time,
a time of curiosity
letting your hair fall differently each day
passionate words drifting from your soul
Into this world of constant stimulation
Hoping that you will bring a light to the minds of those who live in the darkYou are shining so brightly
Being yourself looks really good on you
You are growing and evolving
Becoming a woman of the divine
Allowing the simple pleasures of life
to bring light and joy to your heart insideI love the way you laugh,
And share your love with others
You are truly so caring
You are learning to love
Letting your heart fill with joy
as well as the tears and the sadness
and the pain of all the years beforeMy love you are so strong
you forever stand tall
As you know you are made
To bring so much moreTo the people around
Who wondrously wander
Hoping something will catch their eye
You are here to remind them
That their fire lies insideOh my love, my admiration for you runs high
A pure soul that never seems to dry
Keep shining your light
And just know
that your fire lies insideVoting is closed
