Stars

Aug 21, 2009 21:11

It's a little rough but I like the concept and self-realization.

I lay in the grass, feeling the cool prickle along my skin.  Staring at the stars I begin to notice some that shine less bright.  I imagine myself as one, sharing the sky with those far more prominent than myself.  I still contribute to the night sky and its beauty but somehow less noticeably.  I find myself creating a story for each star.  I draw from each star an energy, I feel secure in my place. I now believe that I shine less bright merely because I am not at my bright point in life.  I am not so prominent so that others may show their light and their success.  A star always shines but it is only brilliant when it has matured and become secure in itself.   I feel myself reaching for my goals rather than already achieving them.  The reason I stand in the background is because my heart is not ready to contribute its full capacity to the world.  I am nurturing my abilities to glow beyond anyone’s wildest dreams.  I will succeed, I will be an amazing wife and lover, I will be my own person, I will live my own dreams.
