Reminding Myself

The Starfish, Acrylic, 9 x 12

Enamored by God’s creation of our beautiful earth,

Sunrise on the horizon, promises of new birth.

Reminding myself to correct my past mistakes,

Better choices I must make no matter what it takes.

Sunset at dusk makes me reflect upon the day,

I stop and take a pause, as I give thanks, as I pray.

Admiring the skies and the mystery it holds,

A day at a time, embracing all that unfolds.

Reminding myself, remember who I am,

My true authentic self, not my old program.

As a child of God, I am of love and light,

Blurry vision begone, with clarity, I have new sight.

No longer am I attached to my successes and fame,

Humility, I practice and my ego, I tame.

No longer am I defined by mistakes of the past,

Learning from each lesson, wisdom is amassed.

Whenever I feel paralyzed by my sadness and fears,

I look in the mirror, I bravely wipe away my tears.

Reminding myself, I am stronger than I think,

Head above water, I won't allow myself to sink.

Unafraid of tomorrow, braver than before,

Facing my present, as I spread my wings, I soar.

Fragile and vulnerable, I might look from the outside,

Divinely guided and protected, I believe deep down inside.

 What future unfolds, depends on the choices I make,

Stay in constant resistance or leap of faith I dare take.

Reminding myself of how I am constantly surrounded,

By God's omnipresence, keeping me safe and protected.

Reconnecting with the Divine as I look deep within,

Knowing God is within me, loving myself beyond my skin.

No longer playing victim; I manifest, I co-create,

With love and light, I emit, sacred bliss totally awaits!
