Another beautiful poem which resonates with the work we do here so wanted to share it with you.Â
Read it slowly.

Patience visited me
And it reminded meÂ
That good things take time to come to fruition
And grow slowly with stabilityÂ
Peace visited meÂ
And it reminded meÂ
That I may remain calm through the storms of lifeÂ
Regardless of the chaos surrounding meÂ
Hope visited meÂ
And it reminded meÂ
That better times lay aheadÂ
And it would always be there to guide and uplift me
Humility visited meÂ
And it reminded meÂ
That I may achieve it ​
Not by trying to shrink myself and make myself less
But by focusing on serving the world and uplifting those around me
Kindness visited me
And it reminded meÂ
To be more gentle, forgiving and compassionate toward myselfÂ
And those surrounding me
Confidence visited me
And it reminded me
To not conceal or suppress my gifts and talentsÂ
In order to make others feel more comfortableÂ
But to embrace what makes me meÂ
Focus visited me
And it reminded me
That other people’s insecurities and judgements about me
Are not my problemÂ
And I should redirect my attentionÂ
From others back to meÂ
Freedom visited meÂ
And it reminded meÂ
That no one has control over my mindset, thoughts and wellbeingÂ
But me
And love visited meÂ
And it reminded meÂ
That I need not search for it in others
As it lies within me.
