A poem about healing through alternate realities

Life is difficult, and how we transition in our lives is going to be completely different from the next, and that is where this poem comes from. It comes from a rich inner world that lays inside my mind, in an alternate reality, where I can find some sense, and ultimately reach peace, and find myself completely.



Dressed from head to toe in my favorite attire,

a color of beige and other neutrals,

cling to my body,

as I walk down these clear halls with millions of doors.

With each door I pass a sound emerges,

a sound of different places that attempt to lure me,

that wish for me to enter that world instead of the others,

and while I wish to go to each one,

in my heart of hearts,

I know it is not where I need to be.


Down the hall,

closer to the staircase that leads to the museum,

there is a door that is designed with the galaxy in mind,

and it is there where I am needed during this time,

and I embrace it warmly.

Opening the door

I find myself entering without any sign of hesitation,

as I leave the clear hallway with millions of doors behind,

only to be greeted by meteorite made lake,

with the rest of the world swirling around slowly,

dancing to the rhythm of of the atmospheric melody.


Just one step and I find myself entering the lake,

no sign of hesitation,

and no sign of fear,

I gracefully let the warm water of the lake take over,

and envelope me in its warm embrace.

As I float in the lake,

surrounded by a cave-like walls,

the planets continue to dance,

continue to finding their pace,

until they find the alignment that is right for me to see.

And it is here where I am healing,

in a meteorite lake,

surrounded by the dazingly planets,

in the deep depths of my soul and mind.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
