Finding Your Voice

Once there was a time,

when I would hide away,

Make myself invisible.

Who was I too step forward?,

said the voice inside.

But then another voice answered,

Who are you not too dear heart?.

Don't dim your light.

Let it shine brightly.

It is time to come out of your shell.

Spread your wings and fly.

You may not be the most perfect, the fastest or the best.

But that doesn't matter.

No not one bit at all.

For no one else has what you have.

Your voice, your story, your thoughts.

Your individual gifts and talents.

All those things that are unique only to you.

That which only you can bring to this world.

So let all that is you shine on.
