In Our Own Little Ways

Be Proud

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read
Be Proud of who you are

“If the version of you

from 5 years ago

could see you right now,

they’d be so proud.

Keep Going”

This is so true ! ! !

When I look at photos

of myself

a few years ago,

I think about

how I’ve got through life

up to this point,

and I do feel:

“Well done you, you made it!”

This could really also apply

to someone

who’s been in a terrible accident.

They may have been in Intensive Care,

needed intense therapy,

both mental and physical,

and after 5 years

can finally walk and talk unaided.

Quite rightly,

that person

should be very Proud of themselves !

And what an example for others,

to show

that most things ARE possible.

We can all do this,

in our own little ways.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
