I used to think the people around me gave me a life force full of vibrancy.
Then I woke up to see my features as dry as the Sahara desert.
The life force of the ocean inside of me was trapped from the dishonesty.
It was easier to keep it trapped inside because I feared the rocky dry land below me more.
I didn't trust myself to get back up once I fell flat on the uneven ground.
I didn't trust my will to keep fighting to get back up after each uneven step I took.
I allowed that single seed of doubt to undo everything I had once gave life to.
I allowed the abundance already inside of me to shrivel up over a tiny seed of doubt that was never mine to begin with.
Just because I had to crawl to the finish line because of the adversity from the ground doesn't take away the victory that was already mine.
It will take time to create the enriched land I once gave life to but I will create it again.
When I am finished it will be even more abundant than before.

A masterfully defiant write here DestinysPerspectives.
You definitely deliver the messages of both self trust and self confidence, in an emphatically potent tone, that is a heartwarming reminder, that although things have been lost, what we will find; when we re-build, will be even stronger.
Bravo, and I hope that all is well!
