I am an inspirer
I cannot steal your sorrows
and bury them inside my heart
so that you may never see them again.I cannot heal your wounds
I cannot put my smile upon your lips.I cannot teach you what to do
for you will not follow them anyways.
I cannot save your soul from pain,
for it is pain that awakens you
to seek the path of truth.This is what I can do-
I can put down my mask
and reveal to you who I really am.
I can show you how I am imperfect and frail
as you are.
I can share you my tears-
tears of sorrow
and tears of joy,
tears that tell you more
than what I could ever explain.I can share to you my journey
I can share to you my setbacks,
I can share to you my fears
as well as the courage
that has been forged
as through fire.I can show you
how heaven has helped me
through it all,
and how marvelous life has been
no matter how difficult
the trials were.By unmasking myself,
I can reveal to you
who you really are-
you are an Inspirer, too!
And you have the gift and the power
to pass on the light
that you have found!
Who is the Inspirer Unmasked?
Share This and Inspire Others!

Hi Joyce .. lovely to know that those words are me - and that despite everything I have more power to be happy and well and take the good things from life and not dwell on any negative. Life is mine to be lived the way I believe I can to the maximum with love in my heart. Thanks - Hilary
Hilary´s last blog ..The Wigmaker, “Cottonpolis” and the first factory
Yes, when we unmask our selves it really helps those who we come into contact with be more them selves
Kudos to you.
