a love letter to "Art"

If ever,

One day, you find yourself feeling like giving up,

Press on!

If ever,

One day, you doubt yourself,

Have faith!

Press on and have faith,

Don’t let your destiny go unfulfilled.

If ever,

You are afraid,

Know,

That it’s okay to be afraid

But it’s not okay to let fear cripple you.

Be courageous, steadfast,

Courageous, hold fast.

It’s not our mistakes and the past that make us

Nor the people and friends who forsake us

It’s our purpose, in life, that will take us

To where we need to be, for life was not meant to break us.

Experiences are there to shape and mold us

And problems are not designed to hold us.

So if ever,

You find yourself within the prison walls of troubles,

Know,

That you are mighty to break down walls.

If ever,

You find yourself within the tangled web of problems,

Know,

That you are able to remove barriers.

Whatever the obstacle may be,

Know

That you are mighty and able

To overcome,

You are indeed mighty and able,

You are…

Mighty and able!
