be

Be openBe funBe wildBe freeI know these are all words you've hearda thousand times. Believe me, I know.But don't let them hang in the air like frozensnowflakes on a translucent phone wire.Be open.Open to change, open to growthopen to forever and open to now.Most of all be open to yourself,being who you are meant to be,who the world needs you to be,who you are afraid to become.Be fun.Go out and breathe fresh air,play on a swing set becauseyou can. Make jokes with strangersand smile at them. Let them knowit's ok to laugh, it's ok to let go,it's ok to have fun without apologizing.Be wild.Kiss a random stranger,wear the shirt you feel best in,even if your mother hates it.Dance all night and sleep all day,continue the dancing in your dreams.Let your hair tangle in the wind.Be free.Be. Breathe. Taste the world around you.Walk through a crowded placewithout faking a phone call.Drive until you reach the top of a mountain,get out and become the king of the world.Don't be ruled by the weight of your own body.Be. Be. Be. Be.Be unstoppable and never settle.Never let anyone tell you notto listen to a cliche. Never giveanyone the satisfaction of tearing you down.You're better than that.You're better than them.
