Basking Ostentatiously

A  L  O  H  A !
We've all been rejected, 
we've all been neglected. 
So why do we think we're
 the only one? 
Why compare ourselves 
to shallow people 
basking ostentatiously 
In their own sun?
 Don't waste your time 
being small. Or hiding 
behind a wall built 
decades ago when 
you didn't know 
what you know. 







A quiet faith in yourself 
will take you far. Speak 
simply when it's time 
to speak, and your 
authenticity will make 
you a star.

Thank YOU
Friend!

    "...decades ago when you didn't know what you know."

    Nice post. I think that thinking you are the only one is part of the human condition.
