It's important to define your boundaries and set your own rules. Safeguard your time, energy, vibrations, emotions and health. Distance yourself from toxicity, jealousy and negativity. And most importantly, to enjoy the journey; enjoy the little things along the way. Presenting our next poem in the Poetry That Inspires Series Brazilian Poet Mario de Andrade's "My Soul Has A Hat "  Regards, Simerjeet Singh My Soul Has A Hat “I counted my years And realized that I have Less time to live by, Than I have lived so far. I feel like a child who won a pack of candies: at first he ate them with pleasure But when he realized that there was little left, he began to taste them intensely! I have no time for endless meetings where the statutes, rules, procedures and internal regulations are discussed, knowing that nothing will be done. I no longer have the patience To stand absurd people who, despite their chronological age, have not grown up. My time is too short: I want the essence, My spirit is in a hurry! I do not have much candy in the package anymore! I want to live next to humans, Very realistic people who know how to laugh at their mistakes, Who are not inflated by their own triumphs And who take responsibility for their actions. In this way, human dignity is defended And we live in truth and honesty. It is the essentials that make life useful. I want to surround myself with people Who know how to touch the hearts of those whom hard strokes of life have learned to grow with sweet touches of the soul. Yes, I’m in a hurry! I’m in a hurry to live with the intensity that only maturity can give. I do not intend to waste any of the remaining desserts. I am sure they will be exquisite, Much more than those eaten so far. My goal is to reach the end satisfied And at peace my loved ones and my conscience. We have two lives And the second begins when you realize you only have one.” ~ Mario de Andarde Watch this video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/zvgv0iDu7yA #SimerjeetSinghPoems #MySoulHasAHat #MarioDeAndarde #SimerjeetSingh #InspirationalPoetry #PowerfulLifePoetry #LifeChangingPoems For more information about Simerjeet's work as a motivational speaker, please visit his website: http://www.simerjeetsingh.com Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/simerjeetsingh
