Sometimes I am the participant, and at other times I am an observer, but it will always be me to you, in underlined themes of course.

[thegeneus254]

You can honor your parents

And break their patterns.

You can love your culture

And question its traditions.

You can respect your elders

And challenge their beliefs.

Gratitude and growth

Aren't mutually exclusive.

"We don’t choose each other at random.

We meet only those who already exist

Within our own subconscious."

Earlier today, I read a quote that said

Destroy yourself to know yourself,

And build yourself to surprise yourself.

The important thing is not to be

But to become.

[thegeneus254]

‎Perhaps it's better to suffer

‎And know the truth,

‎Than to be happy

‎In a delusion.

‎But then,

‎Won't you rather

‎keep your illusions,

‎Aren't they as often

‎kinder to you

‎Than the truth.

‎So the question is,

‎Do you want the truth,

‎Or do you want the illusion.

[thegeneus254]

‎Real eyes

‎Realize real lies.

‎Wise minds

‎Recognize disguised signs.

‎Pure hearts

‎Prioritize true ties.

‎False smiles

‎Often hide dark sides.

‎Time flies,

‎Exposing every disguise.

‎And the deepest scars,

‎Come from trusted lies.

[thegeneus254]

‎Imagine reading a book.

‎The book has no way

‎to turn back the pages,

‎How carefully would you read it.

‎That's life,

‎Every moment passes once,

‎Every word leaves a mark,

‎So choose what matters to you,

‎Before it all becomes memories.

[thegeneus254]

Remember this, you cannot change the people around you, but you can change the people you're around.

[thegeneus254]

‎Everything happens for a reason.

‎The people who come in,

‎And the one's who leave.

‎None of it is random,

‎Every moment carries a lesson,

‎And every lesson is guiding you

‎Closer to your purpose.

‎So when life feels heavy,

‎Pause,

‎Breathe,

‎And remember,

‎There is probably meaning

‎In this too.

[thegeneus254]

‎Do not be a beggar of love,

‎Instead be a giver of love.

‎A beautiful person

‎is'nt always good,

‎But a good person

‎is always beautiful.

‎Be the kind of soul

‎That leaves warmth

‎in every heart it touches.

[thegeneus254]

MAN IS A TAME & CIVILIZED ANIMAL.

NEVER THE LESS,

HE REQUIRES PROPER INSTRUCTION

AND A FORTUNATE NATURE,

AND THEN OF ALL ANIMALS

HE BECOMES THE MOST DIVINE

AND MOST CIVILIZED.

BUT IF HE BE INSUFFICIENTLY

OR ILL-EDUCATED,

HE IS THE MOST SAVAGE

OF ALL EARTHLY CREATURES.

I am trying not to make a funeral

Out of every bad day.

So coffee,

Clean socks,

And an answered prayer,

That's all it takes.

[thegeneus254]

Whatever our souls are made of,

Hers and mine are the same.

[thegeneus254]

‎I loved her like a novel,

‎slow, heavy, and unfinished.

‎But she loved me like a letter,

‎brief, honest, and final.

[thegeneus254]

‎The past exists to guide

‎and to warn you,

‎Not to trap you.

‎Learn from it,

‎But do not live there.

‎Growth requires moving forward,

‎Not anchoring in what is over.

‎Some doors were closed

‎To teach you the road ahead,

‎So not every memory

‎Deserves a home inside you.

[thegeneus254]

‎

‎ I am full of words.

‎Words that would ruin everything,

‎if spoken out loud.

‎She no longer tries to be good.

‎That word alone tastes of poison,

‎pretty lies told to keep lambs docile

‎just before the slaughter.

‎Worthiness is a virtue,

‎or so they say,

‎A shield, they promised.

‎Well,

‎They lied.

‎I am still here,

‎tormented by the very need

‎of her ever fading presence.
