No one steals our dreams
it is we who choose--freely
to give them away

 

 (Stop having a victim mentality and take responsibility for your actions--you are the master of your own ship...)

Everybody has a responsibility to achieve our dreams and make them happen.If we don't make our dreams come true,then it is our fault.I love your messages in your poems.They are truly helpful and appreciated.By the way,I saw your poem in your bio and you definitely have your head on straight.You are a strong woman who has a true sense of who you are and what you're all about.I like that :-)

Superb thinking!! The older I get, the more I realize that this mentality is rare... but I also realize how important it is to me that my children accept responsibility for their actions!

Sometimes though it takes a little time to find out where those dreams went missing. But when you don't give up they return, slightly different, with new direction and hope. Well Done! Deborah

My dear poetess, great poetic advice, yes nice, hate to give it a slice, maybe I should sugar it up and spice. Hate to tell you this, and it's not with a miss, my ship sunk along time agoh, went down in stormy weather, but I kept it together, the captain didn't sink with the ship, came back popped whip, now I sail a new vessel, a lot less hassle, than the old vessel, down with the old ship went everything I didn't need, kept my most important seed. Anyway I'm a jack of all trades and a master of none, but I do master (One). Hugs ;-)

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
