'home - Where You Love Yourself'

You know that feeling of loneliness When you are in a crowd and all at once You feel invisible You try to ascertain where you fit in Do you even belong in your circle of friends? Are you just there to boost the numbers? Did you ever belong in the 'in crowd?' Why do you feel so disillusioned? One thing you should never do Is look for someone or something to complete you You were never made to be the better half Of someone else or something else You should never strive to be the picture Of someone's fantasy Be the best you Be the best complete you And when you get to that point All the parts that seem so out of place Will be exactly where they are meant to be So don't let the veneer of loneliness Force you into a position Where you look for company Where you look for a place to belong When all along "home" is Where you love yourself...

To be vulnerable is no fun. You have it - don't get desperate. Good advice. Love, daver

I LOVE the message of this and I wish I had had more confidence in myself in my late teens and early 20's, to have explored my life more fully before committing to one person. GREAT job, dearie.

Wonderful write, excellent advise I for one need to follow. We have so many that makes us feel disillusioned, a 7 . Hugs Eve
