IF YOU DON”T LOVE YOUR SELF, HOW CAN YOU EXPECT THE WORLD TO?
SPIRITUAL POETRY ON SELF ESTEEM
Start Where You Stand
by Berton Braley
Start where you stand and never mind the past,
The past won’t help you in beginning new,
If you have left it all behind at last
Why, that’s enough, you’re done with it, you’re through;
This is another chapter in the book,
This is another race that you have planned,
Don’t give the vanished days a backward look,
Start where you stand.
The world won’t care about your old defeats
If you can start anew and win success;
The future is your time, and time is fleet
And there is much of work and strain and stress;
Forget the buried woes and dead despairs,
Here is a brand-new trial right at hand,
The future is for him who does and dares,
Start where you stand.
Old failures will not halt, old triumphs aid,
To-day’s the thing, to-morrow soon will be;
Get in the fight and face it unafraid,
And leave the past to ancient history,
What has been, has been; yesterday is dead
And by it you are neither blessed nor banned;
Take courage, man, be brave and drive ahead,
Start where you stand.
SPIRITUAL POEM: On DIFFICULTY
It’s easy to get frustrated.
It’s difficult to be patient.
It’s easy to give up.
It’s difficult to persevere.
It’s easy to be indifferent.
It’s difficult to care
It’s easy to keep.
It’s difficult to give.
It’s easy to doubt.
It’s difficult to have faith.
It’s easy to sit down and quit.
It’s difficult to get up and try again.
BUT – think about it – it’s the difficult choices that bring light into our lives!

Another nice poetry for your spiritual health…I Promise Myself
I Promise Myself… by Christian D. Larson
To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person I meet.
To make all my friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make my optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature I meet.
To give so much time to improving myself that I have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words, but in great deeds.
To live in the faith that the whole world is on my side, so long as I am true to the best that is in me.
