“Sometimes I reflect on days gone by, And I wonder why:”
It was a line written by a friend of mine.
I initially thought “okay you little poet, that’s nice. ☺️
But, the helper in me began to question “Why?”
Why were they contemplating this and what brought this about?
And could I help them stand tall, releasing their every doubt?
For sometimes in life, we’re heavily misunderstood by others.
We’re misused by friends, & abused by our fathers and mothers.
The ones we confide in may sometimes be a little judgmental,
And cause us great distress because their answers aren’t gentle.
But, to my friend, and to those who ponder the same question.
Please rest assured, and remember to be patient with yourself.
For when you are in need, there is always someone who can help.
But I will share a little tidbit that may give you food for thought.
Flowers grow in dirt, (things that seem negative to us) and in pots.
They bloom even in the dry seasons, (when uplifting words are in drought).
Yes, those with beautiful souls, sadly don’t always see…
They’re also a beautiful flower, but they may be trying to grow in the wrong spot.
