Let's Pretend
Embrace your inner hero and rewrite your story through the power of imagination and self-belief.
LET'S PRETEND
Join me on another Peter Pan adventure trend.
Life is grand.
You have a plan.
It's time to grow up,
Take a stand,
Hold my hand.
It only takes one idea,
Yet it takes a tribe to move a land.
You are your biggest fan.
Believe you are the superhero in a dream called here and now —
A place gone too soon if you blink or snooze.
The verdict is in: take a stand.
Life's game rules are distorted by a blueprint that is waterlogged and too bland.
Let's pretend.
We are in demand.
Stand up tall and take command.
You are the main character,
The leader of the band.
Your soul has chosen this road.
There is no script.
This time, it is based on the mystified, unknown drift.
Let's pretend.
Learn to blend.
You will find it easier while healing and on the mend.
Keep going.
Keep doing.
You are an inspiration.
You mean more to those around you than you will ever know.
Be thoughtful in your candor.
Most of us are more sensitive to derogatory banter.
Read the small print on the labels,
But don't take it all so seriously.
Life is just another fairytale fable.
Sometimes, learn to BE.
There will be ups and downs,
Clowns with frowns,
Funny faces in different places.
There is no race to the end.
Our destiny is a mission,
Yet we walk around like zombies,
Gone fishing with measurable precision.
Our expiration date changes,
As self-care leaves traces on our faces.
Let's pretend.
What if…
There is no end, my friend?
This soul's journey is here to heal.
It really is a big deal.
Let's believe this life is all about healing through the tough times.
A meltdown is a breakdown that makes us strong,
Especially when you feel you don't belong.
Be brave.
There is no rescue ship.
You embody the captain
And the crew.
You are the hero here, too —
Save YOU.
Let's pretend.
Love is real.
Can you feel?
If a dove has wings to fly beyond the 432-frequency stratosphere,
So can YOU!
