Its No Small Thing

People are hard on themselves, judging to the point we cannot see the day's accomplishment of continuing to breathe as worth a pat on the back.

Its No Small Thing
by Tricia Pattinson

Its no small thing
Breathing life in
Gushing out your heart's stuff

You can, yes you can
Make it through
A day where nightmares win

Better is a strange word
Bitter's German cousin
Addiction to pleasing future

Ephemeral shimmers around you
Drawing you somewhere
Its no small thing

"Better is a strange word, bitter Germans cousin" Very good insight. People don't give themselves enough credit for being or constantly becoming better. It's always about the bigger picture. Which can be destructive for self confidence.
