To all the naysayers and cruel voices who say we can't do it, hear my words. They say we can't do it. They say it's not possible. They say we're not good enough. They say stop trying and die. Whether in snide comment under the breath, whether hidden behind a screen, whether buried within an expression or simply bold as brass to your face, acting like they are the word and anything less is insignificant. Acting like they have the right to set you straight. No, naysayers, hear my words. Whether doing it out of spiteful jealousy or holier than thou, charade, nothing justifies your cruelty. What I do, how I do it, is none of your concern. Waiting through a river of blood, you will never come out unscathed. Standing on the skulls of your prey does nothing to lift your horizons. There is enough negativity in this world without adding one more voice to the fault. There is not one way or the highway. Kindness will never kill you. So naysayers, hear my words. Please, cease, desist, shut your mouth. I am more than the pennies in my wallet. My worth does not come from numbers. So by, there's the door. Now to those whose hearts are in need of relief, hear my words of solace. Are you ready? You are great. You are good. You are wonderful. You have so much to offer. The world needs you. We need your art, your creativity, your heart. Please ignore those who would drag you down. Their words, their lies are nothing but dust. Your eyes don't let them blind you. If you are alone, if you have no one, then please remember, one person believes in you. Now make it to you must believe in you. You are great. You are good. You are wonderful. Your worth will never come from numbers. Greatness thrives within your soul. One step at a time, close to two goals, never give up. In the end, create what you love. This will find you, others will follow. Shine brighter than the sun, because you are awesome.
