Fireflies!

Firefly-Hush by Jenniferjadee D Slayton

Lately I find myself trying aimlessly to convince the world I am great while the world tries ruthlessly to convince me I'm not.

So today I was thinking I need to take a breather from the hectic battle and give myself some reassurance because I, in fact am great!  I am and that won't change no matter how many documents are not valid, how many qualifications need translation, no matter how many people don't know what I can do! 

I don't know if it is a bit delusional to think this, the world wants bright stars and not fireflies. But then again, fireflies might be small but they can bright up a night and marvel a static moment, and let's face it, in this day and age, stars are all just covered by pollution anyway.



So this is no narcissistic piece of self adoration, every single person who is reading this right now, read it as if it is your own! Let's fill the world with fireflies and have a moment of greatness, not for them out there to see but for us.



Lift yourself up if you know you are great too!

Fire...fire...firefly

Sparkle as you pass me by
Tell me someone great's around
Flip the dull world upside down
