What I wish I knew @ 22

Yoga..

A way to make space

Focus

To cope with the pace

What doesnt kill you only makes you stronger..

And hell yeah its worth living longer..

You dont need to be rich to suceed

To be learned to lead.

Babies are born with no guile

Great pain can hide behind a smile

Love will take you that extra mile.


Better half full with the promise of glory

Than harp on with despair fear and worry.

Better alone than settling for crumbs

Always always wait for 'em drums.


Its easy to let life get you down,

Buried in negativity when the chips are down

Few will advise on staying the course...

Still fewer will be around...for better or worse

to paint a picture, make sure your bubble doesn't burst.



Its harder to trust than to doubt

Easier to leave than to shout.




You dont need to give birth to love a child
To live in a jungle to heed the call of the wild.

Love is a churning emotion.. hard to define
There aint no point casting ur pearls before swine

What seems bright and shiny,

May in fact turn dark and grimy...

Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder

Inner radiance cannot be injected

Your deepest fears your wildest dreams neither cant be detected

In fact it is your heart that will keep your soul protected.



A kind heart can at times be taken for granted

Sometimes you dont know how the fire started.

A firm stance, can be seen as a sign of arrogance.

Being true to yourself aint easy for sure.

But its better than faking to endure.

Travel will broaden your mind & teach you more than school

Hopefully your heart over your head will rule...


Every thing Ive seen I will see again...

Storms never last nor does pain,

But the rainbow is worth the strain.

When the teacher is ready the master appears

Around Honor and glory faith cannot stumble

A great man must always be humble.

The ways of the world can get you down

But do not in despair allow your troubles to abound.

God doesnt throw challenges he knows you cant take

We have all in this world our own path to make...
