I got to a point in my life
where I wanted to stop
writing sad poems and songs about heartbreak, and heartache
I wanted to sing brand new songs
and write poetry that heals the soul
I wanted to change the
current narrative that has
sadness deeply embedded in its culture
I wanted to change things
and show people that
happiness does exist.And so, that is what I did -
Eventually.
I sat down and rewrote the narrative
and this time around,
I created a culture of happiness
with hopes that everyone everywhere
would realise that
happiness is a choice,
Which is why I chose to write
poems and unlock
"Time and Growth"
which is essentially about
happiness in its purest form
and unlocking positivity with growth...I changed my own narrative,
I rewrote my own sad story
and added something new -
I added a dash of love and positivity
and I decided to sing songs of
happiness and positivity tied in a bow of love...Now tell me,
What's stopping you from
becoming a happier version of you?
I did it.
Why can't you?
