What if there was no such thing as,
Rejection?
How would we thoroughly differentiate,
Learn, discern, grow, love, hope,
Become, debug,
Though we would prefer to not have
The negative…
Life is equally balanced and lived,
Having both,
As to better educate ourselves,
As to offer us decisions,
To grow or to stay bitter,
Everything even the negative,
Offers us the opportunity,
To add colors and unfold,
For what us contain,
To be liberated,
To be inspired,
To shine,
For no rejection, shock, hatred,
How would we know love,
How would we know pain,
How would we know what it takes
To face and overcome,
How would we really live,
If we have never knew what it was like to lose,
So that we are redirected,
To move, to heal, to get where
We’ve only dreamed to go….
There will always be a pro to balance a con,
There will always be a con to a pro,
This tug-a-war,
Gives us meaning,
Sustenance,
To live a fully, actually lived,
Life…
Be present,
No matter what the potholes are,
Allow everything,
To be what challenged us,
forward..
