This Anonymous Poem Posted In A London Bar Is Driving MILLIONS Of People Crazy With Its AMAZING TWIST ENDING…

July 25, 2015 By TheLifestylista

TaggedRonnieJoiceTodayWasTheAbsoluteWorstDayEver

@RonnieJoice found this poem in a bar in London.  My goodness – how I have needed this.  Sometimes we see things one way because we forget we can see them a TOTALLY DIFFERENT WAY!  This poem is anything BUT a downer… Read it, trust me.  Get to the end and you’ll see.

It’s amazing.

We all thought it was anonymous until it was discovered that it was Chanie Gorkin – a 17 year old from New York. He put his poem up on poetrynation.com

Out of the mouth of babes!!!

Here’s the poem:

“Worst Day Ever? by Chanie Gorkin

Today was the absolute worst day ever
And don’t try to convince me that
There’s something good in every day
Because, when you take a closer look,
This world is a pretty evil place.
Even if
Some goodness does shine through once in a while
Satisfaction and happiness don’t last.
And it’s not true that
It’s all in the mind and heart
Because
True happiness can be attained
Only if one’s surroundings are good
It’s not true that good exists
I’m sure you can agree that
The reality
Creates
My attitude
It’s all beyond my control
And you’ll never in a million years hear me say
Today was a very good day

Now read it from bottom to top, the other way,
And see what I really feel about my day.”

love,

Kara

“And Still I Rise” by Maya Angelou

January 6, 2015 By LadyK


Maya oh Maya! Professor Maya Angelou, Mother Maya Angelou, Sister Maya Angelou… We miss you girl!

Still I Rise
You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may tread me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I’ll rise.

Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
‘Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells
Pumping in my living room.

Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I’ll rise.

Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops.
Weakened by my soulful cries.

Does my haughtiness offend you?
Don’t you take it awful hard
‘Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines
Diggin’ in my own back yard.

You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I’ll rise.

Does my sexiness upset you?
Does it come as a surprise
That I dance like I’ve got diamonds
At the meeting of my thighs?

Out of the huts of history’s shame
I rise
Up from a past that’s rooted in pain
I rise
I’m a black ocean, leaping and wide,
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear
I rise
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise.

On Boxing day… Get a lesson in gratitude & self love from a girl who’s been called the ‘Ugliest Woman In The World’

December 26, 2014 By TheLifestylista

Hope you had an amazing Christmas day yesterday!  Want a lesson in gratitude?  STRUGGLING WITH YOUR WEIGHT & THE WAY YOU FEEL ABOUT YOURSELF? Get inspired by A GIRL WHO CAN’T GAIN WEIGHT and who’s been called the ‘Ugliest Woman In The World’

This VIDEO: http://youtu.be/c62Aqdlzvqk made me laugh and cry! VOTE “YES” or “NO” below.

24 year old Lizzie Velasquez was born with an extremely rare genetic syndrome that has (1) doesn’t allow her to gain weight, the most she’s ever weighed is 62 pounds (28kg) (2) causes her to age much more quickly than normal and (3) she’s blind in her right eye. When she was in high school, she found a video online that called her “the Ugliest woman in the world”. It had 4 million hits and people left comments like “do the world a favor and put a gun to your head”, “kill yourself”, “burn it with fire”.

Did Lizzie lay down and die? No!
Did she succumb to depression, hate or anger! No.
Instead she decided that she had a choice… We all do. We get to define ourselves.
She also decided to get grateful for what she has not obsessed with what she doesn’t.

— ARE YOU FEELING DEPRESSED BECA– — USE YOU ARE “TOO SKINNY” OR “TOO FAT”?
Well, first thing’s first… Find things about yourself that you do like! I actually clapped, when (in the video), Lizzie says, “I’ve got great hair!”
Find reasons to LOVE yourself TODAY! Right NOW, regardless of your weight!
Watch the video, I don’t want to give everything away but she really is an inspiration.
Check it out!
love,
Kara
