Own Who You Are!!!

I have heard this reading and have read this reading before many Yoga classes and it is my favorite by far. I have always connected to water, ( Im a cancer sign) the ocean, even a storm This is who I am and it is a true reminder. Sometimes I think my chaos and passion is too much. I give and give and feel I unappreciated. It really sucks! ...I am not alone connecting to this poem so I hope many of you resonate with the message and stand tall with who you are.

You were born to be a rainstorm,

To send your voice throughout the night,

To sing your song with falling raindrops,

To break the darkness with your light,

You were born to show raw beauty,

To wash the dirt out from their eyes,

But the whole world ran for cover,

When you opened up your skies,

So you made your thunder silent,

And learned to bite your rainy tongue,

You gave them what they thought they wanted,

You gave them endless sun,

But as they watched their lives grow weaker,

Watched as their leaves turned brown and dry,

They wished they didn't take for granted,

Your booming presence in the sky,

You were born to be a rainstorm,

To be chaotic and be bold,

To show there's beauty in the knowledge,

That you cannot be controlled,

Because you might think you are not needed

Life without you is the same,

But nothing beautiful would ever grow,

if it wasn't washed with rain.
