People you are not enough for, you will never be enough for -and they CAN’T be enough for you!

Stop living your life through another one's eyes, be the full version of you!

Live life lavishly lust full

Stay savagely sweet.

Be beautifully bold to everybody you meet.

Set forth goals for yourself you thought you never could reach,

keep pulling yourself up until you feel complete.

Greet each day bright and bold like the morning day sun,

remember that you - are the only one,

in charge of your future, your feelings and fate.

You can’t hold yourself hostage because of mistakes,

forgive and forget and get rid of that pain.

Live your life with the knowledge we won’t pass here again,

freedom and happiness lie deep inside you.

So when people start pressing saying what you cannot do.....

Smile and move on, you know something they don’t,

you’ve gone through the fire and survived what most won’t

Be grateful and thankful and above all else,

love with all of your heart your friends, family and self
