Hold on tight to the little things

Little things matter more than you can know;

Seek peace and find your stability in them.

When something so huge comes by in life,

When you're holding your breath and wondering,

Hoping, Praying, Willing for good to come off it;

Catch hold of your pot of vaseline,

You'll know for sure that it'll still remain yours.

Think about how life can possibly differ from now on.

Will you be able to lie down with ease tomorrow?

Will you be able to throw your feet up and relax?

How will who you are or have become change?

Calm down; take an easy breath in and out.

Dreams aren't subject to what life may bring.

Yes, you invest so much of you into each of them;

But the results only facilitate your next move.

We do our part and fear the outcome so much;

Is any of the panic really worth it?

You're fabulously intelligent,

You're dedicated and hard-working.

Does the universe not notice your potential?

Courage isn't about what is written in textbooks;

It is in living your life as YOU.

Don't tie yourself down to one tiny consequence;

You are Power, you are Light, you are Love.

Open your eyes to the magnificence that is you.

Things don't happen to you- oh, no, they don't!

YOU happen to things, you bless them with your time;

You convert ordinary to spectacular with your thoughts.

The world isn't dictating terms to you;

Look around- It revolves around you.

When you're wondering what will change tomorrow,

Know that something will get lucky because-

It was destined enough to fall into your path;

You will get better because you're so good at it,

Your goals will get renewed, life will smile some more,

You will still lie down with your feet up in the air,

And that pot of vaseline? It'll still be yours! :) :)
