you
are resilience
in the face of adversity, you reflect brilliance
it bounces off the facets of a diamond formed by pressure
yes you, are a treasure
you
are innovation
like a stream, you squeeze through cracks and soar over waterfalls, you find your way and you flow
you flourish
you
are music
written by the Master Composer, you are composed of odes written to the heavens, notes that line up perfectly with the next person’s melody
you
are harmony
you are exquisite
from the grooves etched into your fingertips to the divot right above your lips, even the birthmark hidden near your hip
every last bit of you is intentional
you are a spectacle
a sight to be seen
a being to take in and appreciate
an opportunity to demonstrate the wonders of who you are
who I AM says you are
you are creation
you defy expectation, existing purely in spite and wholly by might
you are the present
you are present, in this moment
take it all in
it is a gift
a gift I call, “a letter to myself”
