Dear Shirley the Poet:

Your latest poem:

“…Build your bridges of hope (bridges appeared in your dreams a few times), keep holding on to your dreams
Let your dreams be you visions to help you fly
Cause without dreams, life is like a broken bird that has no wings (I like this image!)

Sometimes the wind may blow us off course or our wings may be broken (here is a bit of Shirley the scientist, the one who recently measured the speed of the wind in her hair, meeting Shirley the poet).

It’s okay, not all dreams come true
It is the experiences and the efforts in life that make it beautiful (the experiences, the journey, not the destination…)

It is through our struggles and triumphs that we discover ourselves
If we keep focusing on our faults, we will always have broken wings (excellent point)

So take a chance and fly high up to the sun…
…In your darkest moments, when you fall from the sky, it’s okay
The stars are brightest when the night sky is darkest

So pick yourself up, mend your wings with hope and may you fly upon the stars
…It is time to embrace your flaws and use them to make yourself who you want (and no longer be “Too Criticizing of Myself”, the title of your thread!)

Experience all you want and can!
Go out and discover yourself now!” Encouraging, inspiring! You are on a roll, Shirley!

You wrote before your latest poem: “i feel like today is one of those days in which i feel like i am floating with the angels in heaven… andrew, dave and i decided to relieve a little stress after the ap english essay and we decided to go look for angels. it was quite entertaining, dave pretended to be an angel and andrew pretended to be the buddha.”

What a great adventure: relieving the stress by looking for angels with Dave and Andrew! What a beautiful image this is making in my mind!
