Do you know how hard it is to come by a GOOD thing?
No, I mean a GOOD thing?
Not just a momentary, “feel good,” stroke my ego type of thing…
I mean a GOOD thing! An unconditional, just because you are who you are thing!
A pure, unchanging, devoted, pick you up EACH time you fall kind of GOOD thing!
A think of you even when you’re not thinking of yourself kind of GOOD thing!
A pay attention to every hidden detail of your liking kind of GOOD thing!
A clear my schedule because you want that time kind of GOOD thing!
A wait on you hand and foot because I WANT TO kind of GOOD thing!
A got your back, drop everything to be present for you kind of GOOD thing!
A willing to go 5 extra miles for you kind of GOOD thing!
A follow your lead AND encourage your steps kind of GOOD thing!
A hold your secrets, catch your tears, bear seeds for YOUR future kind of GOOD thing!
An undivided attention, exclusive affection, for your eyes only kind of GOOD thing!
Do you KNOW how hard it is to come by???
Man…I know people waiting and hoping for their GOOD thing to come along while others are just laying theirs by the wayside…too self-indulging and blind to the paradigm of GOOD before them…
If no one has ever said it to you before, let me implore you now…
DON’T LOSE YOUR GOOD THING!
Don’t trade your raw, and pure, and unwavering GOOD thing for a logic that even you don’t understand at the end of the day!
Don’t be tempted by disguises and masks that lure you away from your GOOD thing!
Don’t allow yourself to objectify your GOOD thing; using one minute, putting aside the next!
I don’t know what’s sadder: Having your GOOD thing but never realizing it, or realizing your GOOD thing but only when you’ve lost it…
You see, a GOOD thing is created with resiliency…able to do, able to rise above, able to forgive, able to love…
But what GOOD is a good thing to one who lets it go?
My friend…take heed…
DON’T LOSE YOUR GOOD THING!
And IF you already have…
GO GET IT BACK!
