TO LEAD WITH LOVE
There is great power in the pause Yet it never seems to receive due applause There are many reasons for this cause Modern society has its issues as well as its flaws With the high cost of living and myriad bylaws We get caught in the trappings of the bourgeoise Eagerly awaiting the gifts of […]
What’s with all the body shame? Who signed us up for this ridiculous game? Why should we aspire to look the same? Where did we inherit this habit so lame? We think it’s our fault-we’re to blame And yet the system creates a suffocating frame To achieve a certain look-that will bring us fame This is […]
compare and despair this is something we should spare we allow it to ensnare our feelings about our hair and it influences what we wear this is a habit of most women although probably not the hare nor the free spirited mare it impacts girls more than boys this isn’t fair clearly we just shouldn’t care as much as we […]

But, we’ve been played… We bought into a system and all it conveyed, Ignorant of […]
Choosing YOU Is what you need to do. While listening to other points of view, Opposing opinions may spew and askew. You may simply respond with a kind “thank you,” Or perhaps a curt “adieu.” They have their own agenda Their own world view That they hope you will live up to. It’s not your […]
