Team-work,
Equals,
Everything,
Being a simple process,
Hardly breaking a sweat
To reach the next milestone,
Unlimited assists
Spawning
From veritable support pillars,
No sugar basin
Tastes that much sweeter
Than a combined victory.
-Dante
Opportunity.
Don’t wait for your ship to come in… Swim out to it.

Soothing Articulation.
Her voice echoed in my ears,
For what seemed like forever
A passing stranger, uttering a single
Yet subtle word,
“Sorry”
As we bumped
On a crowded sidewalk.
Apologizing
Yet I was the one not looking
Where I was going?
In awe
Of such selflessness.
Her face, I did not see
But her voice,
Ah….her voice
Such divine articulation,
Pushing my imagination to its limits
Hurriedly placing possible facial features
To go with such a soothing voice.
Its possible, that I was off the mark,
That I gave her a face
Far beyond its actuality,
But what if …
What if it was the face I pictured
To the very last detail,
What if It surpassed
My imagination
By a mile,
What if …
I just let the one,
Walk away …
-Dante
Rise.
From a pile of ashes
Rise out anew
Ascending,
Dodging and leaving
The ashy cloud,
As if you’re the very air
Between
The fragmented particles themselves.
-Dante
Don’t give up on you…
Don’t give up…
on that dream,
sought by your tired eyes,
for even this long lonely night,
will be followed by the light
of day…
the tides rising in your heart will calm,
Keep walking on your way…
Don’t give up,
on you.

Never lose hope!
Mother Nature’s Sentiment.
Through the rustling trees
Comes nature’s whisper
Of a greater tomorrow.
-Dante
Learn How to Draw Boundaries with Manipulative People
Drawing boundaries is difficult for people that have People Pleaser Syndrome because we were never taught how to draw our own boundaries. Personal boundaries were constantly crossed by one or both parents.
People from abusive backgrounds were brought up to keep our feelings and opinions to ourselves and to cater to the feelings of others. If you have people pleaser syndrome then you have some (not necessarily all) of the following characteristics.
1. Difficulty saying no, especially when the other person does not want to accept “no” for an answer.
2. Extreme anxiety during any confrontations.
3. Extreme anxiety when people are disappointed in you, or they are not happy with your actions.
4. DIfficulty standing your ground, when you do not agree with someone.
5. Get taken advantage of easily or often.
6. Other people get more time to make their case during arguments. You end up feeling intimidated…

Hit The Mark.
You only get one shot at life
A single round in the chamber
There are two options:
Either fire blanks and waste it
Or take 20 paces and draw.
-Dante
Revolutions Per Minute.
Living in the moment, tomorrow is never certain
With life’s constants and variables
And its number one buddy
Time,
Unmanaged, versatile and formless
Like water,
Supplying a diverse set of wavelengths
Conjuring the unpredictable.
In a sea of dreams
Nothing is ever certain,
What you hope to see
And what will be,
Can, and will probably,
Be two different things.
-Dante
