Inspiring the Soul, Elizabeth A. [important books to read .txt] 📗

You ever wonder? Just wonder about anything and everything? I do, love and it`s meaning, Friends and what it takes to be a true one, Family, Nature, Your future, Someone elses future. Sometimes I pretend I`m a bird and if I spread my wings far enough, I can soar all the way to Asia and back in a day. You ever pretend to be or do something others claim impossible or just plain crazy? Come on, don`t be shy. Answer the questions as we read on along.
Think about this one question tonight. Do you have anyone to always depend on, even in the middle of the night, for any reason what so ever? If so, how many people can you count that are there for you? What was the last time you called them at an outragious moment and how did they respond?
Is there ever a time when you feel your alone? Have you ever, once in your life feel you`d be better off dying slowly in a cold, disgusting, dark, stone prison cell. You ever see a person you know come up to you and ask "What`s wrong? Are you okay? Did someone try to hurt you? Did your man break a promise, lie or steal or cheat?" and you wonder if their just asking out of respect or curiosity or if they really just genuinly care about you?
You ever wonder if you`ll end up okay when everything in your life goal and checklist is complete? Scared things


won`t turn out right? The answer to this is that we learn from our mistakes as we get older and then we move on to learn from some other mistakes.
We might get teased or just hide our personality under what everyone else wants us to be, but if this should so be true, then think about this. Why? Why do we hide? Why do we let them tease and taunt and pressure us? Why do we not stand up for what we believe in? Why do we sit in the back corner and let them believe in the lies people spread about us? Why can`t we understand and get along?
For those of you who have that tendency to just say things straight up and not ever take in considerence how badly you just hurt that person. Do you have a reason? A reason to tell people things they already know and just don`t want to be asked in general? You ever sit down and just listen to yourself? Just image what that person is feeling when you tell them straight to their face?
For you artist out there. where does inspiration come from? Anywhere? WRONG! SHHHHHHHH... Do you hear that Thump, Thump, Thump? IT`S YOUR HEART! the heart holds the key to creativity! Creativity comes from the inside before it reaches the outside does it not?
Dancers, what do you need to be the best? Shoes, the proper outfit? NO! How bad do you want to dance? Bad enough. Then the first step comes from within. With out wanting then there is no reason in trying is there? EXACTLY! It`s the same with sports or any activity for that matter! You need to want it before you can acheive it.
Do you like to write? Then you must wonder too, no? Your all alone when your looking for something or someone to write about? No, there are others in the world. Aren`t there? Surely we cannot be the only ones.
You ever think you`ll forget how to do something. Like how to say a tough word like, Salmonella? Or how to write the letter "q" in cursive? Forget about the people who say your stupid or mentally retarded! They just don`t understand we all have a delema somewhere. weither speech or playing an instrument or even cooking.
Don`t be afraid of the dark. There is nothing that could possibly hurt you. Your inside the house aren`t you? You aren`t afraid of the exact same space when there`s a light that shines. What? The light provides security? How? The light reminds you of a warm summer sun and then you think of all the fun summer carries along with it. I often drink lemonade. It reminds me of when my mother would make lemonade and then we would all go out back to the playground and take a seat somewhere and talk about everything that ever made us feel any emotion.
Feel depressed when winter comes? Bored because you can`t go out and run with the real wolves as the stalk the deer? Don`t worry you aren`t alone. We can always have some hot chocolate and share about what happened to the little mocking bird that pirches on my window or the fuzzy squirrel that runs into your window for fun.
You miss them don`t you? The ones you lost in the car accident or the disease? Don`t worry we all lose someone. I myself have experienced that. Do you ever just sit in the dark and cry and cry and cry? Wondering if their looking down on you ponder why you won`t go after your dreams? You never thought about sharing what happened with a close friend or maybe even someone you don`t know? How many have always wanted to see the person they miss so much one last time?
You miss your daddy? How about your mommy? Did they leave you? Why, why would they leave you innocent and untainted by the world, to be wondering where they are now and if they`re even alive anymore? It`s okay, if they really did run off it`s because they weren`t good enough for you. Is it not? Don`t get me wrong maybe they just couldn`t afford to stay with you?
