Breathing Life into “Could Be”

Don’t let the should be 
eclipse your could be,
for every could be
can breathe fresh life on its own,
and bloom spectacularly 
when given a chance. 

So never hesitate to take a detour
when your mind calls for it,
for you’re not yet at liberty
to see the full picture—
only a glimpse
of what can be nurtured and cherished,

as you wander, discover, and relish
one small dream at a time.
