The thunder has arrived.
It is all but serene.
How can people be so mean?

You are doing it wrong. Do it like this. Caught in a trance. Heal it with a kiss.

Your rights do not matter. Please be silent. Rise up. Fight it. Please do not be quiet.

This is your life and everything is a choice. Be who you are and remember to rejoice.

You are not good enough and never will be. Glance in the mirror and love what you see.

You will never accomplish your far-reaching dreams. Believe in yourself and the world will open at the seams.

You hit me and I will hit you back. Sending loving kindness is the best attack.

You don’t like my methods? Let’s go to war! Criticism is not the way to everyone’s core.

I expect it to be perfect every single time. Letting go of perfection is not a crime.

Oh but wait…the thunder has ceased.

What a task to tame this mighty beast.
