Dear Mirror

They have no face, no visualisation of true self,

Just shelf upon shelf, of hollow logic, and an empty glass,

Not half empty, nor half full... just empty.

They chase the warmth of 'kindness' like a theif,

Feeding an ego that can not find rest.

They weave a web of words, to prove their worth,

Shiny and bright, to earn a strangers nod.

But true empathy or kindness,

Can not be sold or staged.

It does not need a witness,

No audience or a god.

If it has to be spoken then the truth is gone.

The truly good are felt, not heard,

They need no introduction, immages or words.

No self portraits,

No look at me.

A ghost convincing you they are real.

Defined by praise,

Starving for attention,

Begging for an audience,

Fishing for a mention,

Calling for a witness.

Genuine charisma moves around in silence,

Unseen, unheard, felt, just a feeling,

A bright aura needs no introduction.

No words with hooks.

When they look in the mirror, I wonder, what do they see?

Dear You

Knowing when to leave, a relationship, a job, people, sitation, even a social event, knowing when it's time to walk away, is a life skill which should not be underestimated. It's healthy self protection.

No turning back, no regrets...

The greatest gift and sacrafice you can sometimes give, is knowing when to walk away for the well-being of someone else, one sided situations for example, when it's over, when hanging on, is only prolonging the agony for them, yourself or both. Whether you are the one who wants to leave, or have the empathy to feel, know, the other is struggling walk away. Not because they want to stay, but because they don't want to hurt you. Draging out the inevitable, the hurt. Causing fresh unnecessary pain on both sides, destroying what were once, happy memories, replacing them with bitterness. It becomes unhealthy. Having the strength to leave is not cruel. Surely we all deserve someone who is one hundred percent present, want this for ourselves and those we love. Why would we want to hang on to something that is done, over..No one is suggesting it's easy.

By setting them free, or vice versa, you will also be free and both eventually move on.

Learning to let go completely.

Listen to friends, sometimes their words are wiser than you would like to think, they often see through the fog and suffer your 'weather' having told you what you don't want to hear, they are willing to go through your storms.

Stand still, everything will come to you where you are at and become clear. Our compas is set to where we are, we have only started to move afar more recently and it hasn't made us happy, everyone is always looking for something further afield and the universe doesn't really work like that. Most of us gravitate to home.

Love and Peace

This is not about me, it's a message, I hope it resonates with someonene and helps them, move foreward.
