Be who you are

Contributed by PetaWilliams on Tuesday, 26th October 2010 @ 05:54:41 AM in AEST
Topic: InspirationalPoems



Don’t chase the wind
Let the wind chase you
Don’t follow the wind
Show the wind how to fly
Don’t be to loud
But don’t be shy
The less we do
The less we become
Put your whole heart into it
Life gives us the chords
We choose the strum
Life gives us the path
We choose where it leads
We don’t always get what we want
But we have what we need
Don’t waste your life
Watching other people live theirs
Let the world know who you are
Even if nobody cares
Do the best you can do
And do what you can
Life is the ocean
We are just the sand,
Travel near and travel far
But most important
Be who you are.


-Peta Williams

gentle expressions and an easy ready.
My favorite part in their is
The less we do
The less we become
So true and very wise.
Thanks for sharing, looking forward to reading more of your writing!

Really good. This reminds me of that old saying., it's nice to be important, but more important to be nice.

Your poem screams at me, in a positive way:
Get your priorities strait
Only that will be "YOUR DAY"!

The only true existence, is 2bpositive....
And if we don't start with ourselves,
we might never get there.

Thumbs up to you.
