#positivevibes via @xgvo ・・・ When you #knowwhoyouare, It don't matter what they say. Everybody loves a star Yet even the heavens make way for the sun every day. Moral of the story: What I look like dimming my light for the insecure ones?! Thou shall not dim thy light for no one. Not in this life, not in a day. Wannabe stars don't shine in the presence of the son anyway. What good is a bright idea without execution anyway? When the son don't shine, The sun don't shine; I don't know how to dim down anyway. “Nothing can dim the light that shines from within” as elder Maya used to say. Don't you dare dim your light; The sun doesn't care who it blinds, It shines anyway. #NEVERDIMYOURLIGHT! Not Now. Not Tomorrow. Not Ever and A Day. #AINTNOHALFSTEPPIN’, You gotta #hitthegroundrunning; If they don't step up, step over them. You tend to see further when you're standing on the shoulders of giants: Walk with me, The ancestors illuminate my feet, I’m walking through the footprints of those that paved the way. For what it's worth, I guarantee you, #selfworth will not be unearthed in the opinion of others. Opinions come a dime a dozen And talk is cheap; Lest we forget: #peaceofmind is a helluva price to pay. If it costs your peace, you can't afford it. #energyisexpensive And #thevibeneverlies… #mypoemsarenotpoems, Have thou not take heed to what I say?! #EVERYBODYDOESNOTDESERVEYOURENERGY! When you gonna commence to #PROTECTYOURENERGY And place no value in what others have to say? When you know your worth, One’s two cents won't subtract from your day. When things ain't adding up, It’s best to remove thine self from the equation anyway. O how ye find thyself when ye learn to walk away. #exercisingselfrestraint is hard, Yet letting go eases #theway. But don't mind me, I just wanna study the healing power of crystals, Drop a few gems, And enjoy #thearts. If nothing else, #BEKINDTOYOURSELF. Some people only hate 'cause other people love you; Don't ever forget that part. If you need me, you could find me somewhere wafting sage, In the company of a woman who overstands: NO BEAUTY SHINES BRIGHTER THAN THAT OF A GOOD HEART -Stevie #poem | Never Dim Your Light, abridged
