Not A Pretty Girl
"I am not an angry girl
but it seems like I've got everyone fooled--
every time I say something they find hard to hear
they chalk it up to my anger
and never to their own fear--
and imagine you're a girl
just trying to finally come clean
knowing full well they'd prefer you
were dirty and smiling.
--and I am sorry
I am not a maiden fair
and I am not a kitten stuck
up a tree somewhere."
Ani Difranco
I want to meet the wild at heart that are caged in their own fear, and for those I will say a prayer.
Where are the people that don't know what they want in life? That search to learn about their duality? That make excuses and sometimes don't follow through?...That scream or just takes it all in without saying a word?...People with or without a plan?...People that dance like a chicken and fart like a donkey? That are unruly and rebellious?
The brave at heart that pull up their courage to be real and love through their own eyes and hearts--not through the windows of others?
Those are the qualites and behaviors you have to accept in the people you choose to be in your life, even if some seem "unacceptable" and "unclean". We're human.
But what I learned is that if you're strong enough to embrace your faults and accept others shortcomings, then you can love without fear. I'm still learning...but I know that some good has to out-weigh the bad.
Just be yourself and brave the day.
Vast scope.
