Will you Understand?
It is more important
To be calm and collected
So that you could look
At your reflection
Feeling satisfied.
You see
Honesty, modesty and curiosity.
While seeking for answers
Hidden in plain sight,
And solutions as to how
To perceive and proceed
This journey of life
We have graciously entered.Is it happenstance or is it kismet?
Remain unassuming and relentless, as you’re most times unconscious
To the truth that you’re the chosen one,
To pave your own path,
Realize you have the ability to
Walk to the beat of your own drum.
Go on with your wild,
Conspicuous and curious mind
Explore the adventure of a lifetime.
Addicted to adrenaline
Whilst you remain calm and collected.
It’s all ok as long as you
Can look in the mirror And be satisfied
With the person you’ve chosen to become.
What’s more important than being seen
Is how you made them feel.
Sensitive and sensible creatures we are
Although some I’d like to question.
Embrace the chaos
But do not dwell in your mind
Attached to nothing,
Yet open to anything
Will get you to places few have seen.
Pick people up and leave imprints on those
You have to leave behind.
You carry the burden
From the womb to the world.
Realize that it’s not a burden,
Only a great responsibility
Wherein lies your power.
Not for control but for figuring out
That you really have no control
Over the chaos, confusion, delusion
We all live in.
Just dance and make light
As life is a mirror
And we are here to create
The best versions of ourselves
You are the image
With an indomitable spirit.You will get lost
As explorers usually do,
I only ask that you
Stay true to you.One day it’ll all make sense
Looking backwards
You’ll see that all
Will be in place
In a matter of time.
Only then, looking into the wake of your lifeWill you understand.

Andrea, this piece has so much wisdom in it. I absolutely love it. This line in particular resonated with me: “Attached to nothing,
Yet open to anything
Will get you to places few have seen.’Your insight is so pure and simple, and yet it can be hard to live by. However, it’s definitely worth trying. Thank you for sharing and thank you for being…read more
