I don’t bounce out of bed frothing with platitudes and positive thoughts.
I do not skip about my day with a Disney Princess magic shimmering from my pores.
This hopeful mindset of mine has been dragged up, kicking and screaming, from the deepest depths of rock bottom.
I have chiselled this lightness out of the densest stone and I work on it daily to hone its beauteous shape and cultivate its shine.
I protect its structure fiercely now because I know how much work went in.
And how bleak the landscape of my mind was, before I created this breathtaking view.
Do not look at me and mistake my brightness for shallow,
I went as deep as a soul can go, to find it.
