In case you were wondering,

Everybody dreams

There are the small and big dreams that are framed

When we are not yet old enough to understand how the world works

And are left building those dreams to even more elaborate fantasies to make reality

In case you were wondering,

Everybody hopes

There are small and big expectations that latch onto us

Either they lift us up in success or weigh us down in failure

And await on us to make a comeback or remain defeated

In case you were wondering,

Everybody hurts

There are shallow and deep scars that confine us

Don’t ever compare you pain to someone else’s

For there is always a person experiencing different pain that may be greater or equal to

And consider this as you live the life you envision

In case you were wondering,

Dreams don’t define you, so let no detour on your way deter you

Hopes won’t end you, so let no disappointments lose yourself

Pain can’t confine you, so let life guide you

In case you were wondering,

There will always be dreams, hopes, and pain but it is how you move on

When these things get the better of you

And leave you feeling helpless or confused

That determines your inner strength

The world moves at a fast pace, but could you refocus yourself past

Failed dreams

Upsetting hopes

And unimaginable pain?

I am no expert, but I say to you, should you ever forget:

In case you were wondering,

Life is only yours to make of it what you will
