. S o m e w h e r e . S o m e h o w . S o m e d a y .


S o m e w h e r e :

I once wandered through my days thinking of all the places I could be but here. 
I struggled like anyone else trying to find peace at heart, an answer that was at point blank distance yet I always missed.
Searching nights restlessly hoping one day I'd have the answers I ponder hours for, yet here I am still wondering if I ever needed to worry for all the little matters to weigh me down for the years to come. 
The answer is...  No. 

S o m e h o w: 
No one held my hands when I fought myself through my darkest time,
I never wished nor wanted for that to get in the way of my relations with others. 
Yet, today I am here standing on my own two feet - still asking myself if things would have been different would I have set aside my own strengths and indulged in my weaknesses. 
Others ask of guidance, some ask for a reference and today I am asking if  I would truly change any of my past decisions. 
The answer is... No. 

S o m e d a y: 
In legends, and fairy tales there are exciting events and happy endings. 
But in between alike there are increments of sadness, remorse, anger, and regret. 
In life someday, I just want to be able to look back at my life and smile not in defeat but with contentment. 
Compliment myself for the path I did choose. Embrace who I have become, and someday even tell myself - " you made it." 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With time drifting I find life all the more beautiful.
There are ugly moments, but I know now it was only a moment. 
There are memories I still shed tears for, but I know now they were worth every second. 

Someday, Somehow, Somewhere : 
I reflect upon my deepest desires to fight with my greatest fears. 
Celebrating my growth through my passion, ambitions, and dreams. 


Love,
LxMei

Fight with the strength of a light house

If I asked you to think of the strongest item in this world? What would you think of... a man? a woman? or more specifically maybe an item is what you are picturing. 
No matter what it is, perhaps its just how you like to view the words "strong". Your way of putting an image of something to a word to give it more strength and meaning. 
In my defense, I do not think strong means indestructible or imperishable; rather considering other factors such as: continually standing or withstanding a great force but using whatever is left in one's power source.
My image of strong, was created when I laid my eyes upon a lighthouse. In some cases they appear eerie but in other times they can appear beautiful, fragile even. Upon the image below I concluded something about life... image every human were a lighthouse. 
In the past some lighthouses have fallen, and then rebuilt because ships depend upon them... because they hold stories. Lighthouses face strong winds, protect others, and even pull through after the biggest tides crash into them continually. The beauty in the strength of a lighthouse lays in the simple factor after a storm it stands by itself still... tall maybe bewildered but standing.   

Now think like a lighthouse, and fight like one too; become a lone warrior in the middle of all tides fight to survive... for those who need your guidance and come for your hidden beauty. 
Never give up a battle, and remember even when you lose, someone is coming to your aide so do not fear the battle because the war itself has yet to start.
