The Space Between You and You

Believe in yourself
And don't allow yourself not to
Speak your truth
And don't allow yourself to judge you
Wear what you love
And don't allow yourself to take away the joy of it

Say you can when you think you can't
Do what you say you would never be able to
And try foods that aren't "you"

Go to a movie alone
And buy yourself some popcorn
Treat yourself to a walk
Listen to music that isn't music you would normally listen to
And you will start seeing that you can adapt
That you can take in and enjoy what is new
That you too can be new

We think our job is to stay who we are
Be who we are
Act like who we are
And whoever said how, what or who we are means?

We are who we think we are, that is who
We are the person who can try things, leave things that aren't right for us
And build things from simple thoughts in our heads

Believing in ourselves starts with the thoughts of our hearts being acknowledged
And then acted on
And then expanding out of our comfort zone

We are meant to be a little uncomfortable at times,
otherwise we have no stresses to move us along
And we are meant to not be too uncomfortable for then we know what is not right for us

We always know what we believe,
yet we need to trust what we know
and then we can see
That belief is not a trick or for someone else,
Belief is available
And once you believe one thing,
It is so much easier to find other things to believe in
It is the growth of your soul, one step at a time
One moment to another
One decision to do so at a time

How silly it is to say no
When the fight inside wants to say yes
Let the walls of very hard years of keeping them there
know they are on notice
Put your heart on notice
That you will be taking on the walls
and walking around them

We don't have to wait for a good day
To say we are going to try anything
Today is a moment that you can look in the eye
And say in this moment I want to do something about what I have been thinking
And just see what happens

Believing in yourself doesn't come easy
Nor cheap at times,
But believing in yourself does bring on an inner glow
One that stands over you, guides you,
When you start to give up or forget why you are trying
Believing in yourself
Leaves the excuses behind
