Pendulum of Emotions

Feelings of inadequacy wash over me.
Will I ever be good enough?
I know logically, I am good enough.
But will I ever FEEL like I'm good enough?

I ponder silently in the still of the night.
Only the hum of the fan, and the ticking of a clock surround me.
Silence is soothing,
As a babe sucking its thumb.

Loneliness is at bay.
But alone time is so precious.
I choose the upswing.
I want to celebrate.

Celebrate life, as I know it.
Celebrate each day, as if it were my last.
Celebrate each person I come into contact with.
Celebrate life...not take it for granted.
