Soul - Felt Poem by Kandayia Ali

"I have 2 Choices In MY Life: To Make It—- or—— Make It! "


"YOUR STORY CAN ONLY BE WRITTEN BY YOU... TELL THE UNIVERSE WHAT YOU WANT TO BECOME- AND FOCUS ON BECOMING AND WATCH YOUR PAGES BE FILLED WITH THINGS THAT MAKE YOU FEEL COMPLETE AND WHOLE WITH THE COSMOS. LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT- SO MAKE IT THE BEST DAMN LIFE IN THE WHOLE WORLD! "

"If what U gather to adorn Ur body with is too big, small or U don't like it, U can either return the the item or give it away to someone who it best suits; This isn't true for energies U gather to adorn the spirit with these entities are absorbed, reconfigured and embedded for as long as Ur spirit dwells inside of Ur body. Be careful when choosing things that U may 'think' is a good fit for Ur life's journey- it maybe too big, too small or just doesn't match."

"STOP BEING 'IN' PAIN ON PURPOSE! ! ! As an ADULT, the ONLY thing a man or woman can blame on their parents is the fact that they assisted
in your creation. Stop using your upbringing and things that happened
to you as a youth as an excuse to ruin the lives of people who really
give a damn about you. People are quick to say 'I'm grown! ' Really, ARE YOU? If you are then make things right in your own life. Harness the pain and use it for productive purposes."

Keep thinking the way you think and being they way you're being. Eventually, you'll get weary of slamming the doors of opportunity closed in YOUR OWN face. Sometimes in life, YOU ARE your worst enemy- plotting your own demise.

'If you are running up a staircase and you slip from moving too fast and not watching your steps- you will surely fall damn near, all the way back down- things will fall right before you the same way in a relationship. When this is your life, that staircase should be traveled with the utmost of care and observation so that you don't miss the steps that may take you upward and not cause you to fall. Your goal should ALWAYS be to reach the top! '

Never count your faults as imperfections- only see them as ways that separate you from others. These things are the things that make you ‘perfect'- because no one else has what you have- and if they do, it ain't better than yours! So every extra curve, wrinkle, mole, scar, shape or size is all you- accept it and begin to nurture, honor and respect the skin that you're blessed to be in!

'I'd rather live the rest of my physical existence being me- than to spend a fraction of a second being ANYONE else in the world. I don't know what they did to get where they are- and honestly- depending on what it is- I don't want to know.'

"In life, sometimes a great loss can be the introduction to an even greater gain... The loss could have been what was holding us back from taking flight- The Creator wants us to have a lighter load so that we can fly..."

'I've learned that it's ok for someone to 'feel' like you've turned your back on them. Not because you did it intentionally, but because it would seem that way if you're moving forward in YOUR LIFE and they are standing still in theirs. Keep going forward- either they will be there moving with you or be left behind. Either way- you will be blessed with what you need OR don't need- to fulfill your own destiny.'

'You know what real power is? It's standing to your feet after being knocked down so many times- and when you take that first step, you can feel the world tremble beneath your feet. They thought you were too weak to come back. They didn't expect you to get up... Make every step from then on count! '


'Your life must be a continuous 'treasure' hunt! Out of every bad thing- something good always develops if we stand firm and stay focused. Life is your map- you're the pirate of your own ship- don't be afraid to set sail in a new and exciting direction. Never mind what people think- what they say- what they do- 'who they are'- AND if they get on your nerves- make them walk the damn plank! '
