It's Okay

Some find wonder in driving across the country,

some find wonder on the top floor of a public library.

Some find adventure in hiking the Rocky Mountains,

some find adventure at the tip of a paint brush.

Each soul goes in its own direction,

guided (or misguided) by the atlas of their mind.

Who cares if you like light coffee or dark coffee,

or if you walk into a Starbucks just to walk out.

You have the capability to appreciate all things —

to go where you so desire,

to become what you want to become.

This is your reminder:

It’s okay.

It’s okay to love what others don’t.

Whether you scale mountains or canvas’, roads or bookshelves,

if you’re still breathing,

you’re still beautiful.
