Be Honest With Yourself First And Everything Else Will Follow Poem by mona martinez

If you ever want to move forward in life,
the first person you have to be honest with is yourself,
forget everybody around you,
because either they are with you,
or just there to hold you back,
life too short to wonder about what if's,
make mistakes but know the consequences,
life feels better when you know who's truly by your side,
and who only there for the ride,
because when times get hard,
and you need somebody to talk to,
only those people who truly love you,
will be the only ones by your side,
so live life to the fullest,
laugh your butt off along the way,
and love the people who remind you who you are,
when you start to wonder off and get lost,
but most importantly,
always be honest with yourself.
