Return to you
Forget who you’ve learned to be
over the years
from your parents
your teachers
your friends
your elders
your rule enforcers.
Listening to them
over yourself
as if they know what’s best for you
more than you.
Only you
know what you need
what you want
what you desire
how to be happy
fulfilled
satisfied with this life.
Others think they know
what’s best for you
and they like the control.
This has become our normal.
We try to satisfy everyone else
so many expectations
projected onto us by others
we think
but really projected by
ourselves.
So let go
of all of the unnecessary pressure.
Breathe
Listen to your inner guidance.
Become who you really are.
That’s the purpose of this life.
Accept who you are
accept who others are
let them be
so that you can be
you.
Namaste
