Day 16

Day 16


Every single being created on this earth was created with purpose. Time and time again, this belief is illuminated in my life. As humans it is hard for us to let people in; to let them see our vulnerabilities. We have things that we feel we must hide. Fear is what never allows our emotional walls to be broken. I believe every person that enters your life enters with something that will help you grow. They could bring you happiness or they could bring you pain. But within both of these traits, there is some sort of growth that blooms. Relationships are key. They are the only thing that keeps us alive. Think about every single relationship that helps you do what you do to survive each day. It is nearly impossible for anyone to survive alone and if they do, they typically only survive, not live. It does take effort though. Relationships are a project. You must feed your relationships if you want them to grow. When I don’t commit to a relationship, it dies. There are times where I want it to wilt but other times I have no intention of losing a connection but it goes simply because I never gave it the time. So you must take time to build relationships then continue to maintain them. Doing this builds others because they rely on you. You make an impact in the lives of every single person you interact with every day, but it is up to you to decide how big the impact is. With others, you can reach heights that you could never reach alone. Become vulnerable. Allow others to see your vision. Share your knowledge. You were made with a purpose, you are here because we need you here.

  As if they’d never end I can feel the end begin Just as it did before I walked out, shut the door Won’t step foot there anymore Flashbacking, backtracking To warm water splashing As the sand swirls And I hold you close to me Because I know it makes you feel Like it makes me feel Now it’s realer And faces once familiar Have become distant characters In our memories of yesterday Where was I? Did I find what I tried to find? Because in some ways I feel blind To the thoughts of my younger mind Somewhere in the meantime I got caught up in this screen time Lost the deeper meaning Just following the street signs

  “You coming or what!?” My sunburnt eyelids slowly opened to the same bright sun as always. Half my body hung over the side of the bus stop bench. I still felt hazy from last night’s fix. “Dude, I’m doing you a favor here!” I looked up to be blinded by a bright red car holding up traffic at the intersection. Horns were blaring behind him as he scolded me from the car. It seemed like the horns didn’t even bother him as he sat back in his seat with his head nearly touching the roof and his eyes stuck on the dirty windshield in front of him. Confused as to what was happening, I got up and cleared the dust from my eyes. I grabbed my bag and made my way over to the dented passenger side door of that red car. He rolled the window up and let out a deep sigh as I approached.  “It’s Sam, how ya doin?” “Hey I’m M-” “It’s not short for anything either, it’s just Sam. What you feelin man?” “I’m, uh, I’m pretty, uhhh-” “Music, man, music!” He slammed his hand on the steering wheel. “What ...

Sometimes I still feel like Mentally I am here Sailing to shore with the wake Maybe I wish I was Maybe it’s just my way To escape Whatever it is- Who cares? Because when there are waves I don’t even notice Because the sun shines Bright, where the trees break And the waves are no longer danger Instead they fade into The sounds of the lake Superior to be 19, Grand Marais 20 whatever I feel it everyday Seagulls squawk But to me they say Happy birthday Even though it’s just another Ordinary day Though a sky like this Doesn’t just make for another day … When life was a mess I never even prayed When I had no faith You still showed your face And I still think about it Every single day.
