    I'm grateful for talented people like you who put their energy in accomplishing greatness. I might sound stupid but i'm grateful for the fact that my struggles, my problems are third world problem. My issues ain't issues compare to what some people actually live.

      +Dank why not? People have some pretty amazing things to say. Crying is not a negative thing in my opinion.

    Each one of your poems so far, had touched me deeply.
    I went to sleep with the words: "I'm enough", playing in my head, and know I woke up to this.
    I feel inspired to make some changes I need to.
    Thank you!

  • @natmcculloch9014

    This is a really great message, but we also need to remember that it's okay sometimes to complain or to be upset. If you keep telling yourself that you are grateful for such a wonderful life, then you start to feel ashamed when you get upset or mad at your life. Be grateful for what you have, but also remember that it's okay to complain, be upset or mad. You're only human.

    If she memorized it and didn't look at her phone, it would be more powerful.

    • @aemmathis
      @aemmathis 9 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      As someone who performs and watches (both online and in person) a lot of spoken word poetry, reading from a phone is pretty normal. I would rather someone read from a phone and be able to focus on emotion than feel like they have to recite something from memory. It feels a little more real and less like someone trying to act.

      +Natalie Patterson Hey, thanks very much, I appreciate the amount of thought you put into that. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved your poem, I found it awesome and I can relate a lot to the things you said with my own personal outlook on life, I was just giving you some constructive criticism on how it would have worked better for me personally. I guess I prefer full eye contact presentations because my background is business and when preparing for my presentations I memorize all the things I need to say and I explain it thoroughly and enthusiastically to others to keep their attention. I'm not familiar with poetry, but I always enjoy it. Have a good day :)

    geeze you guys sound a real 😎 cool group. Let us all not become hoodwinked into that proverbial search for a Messiah ...even in dude James' Bible Christ was known to have said, 'THIS YOU SHALL DO AND MUCH MORE [MIRACLES]'.As He sadly reflected on mankind's pure alacrity at not assuming responsibility... 'DO THE DAMN THING!' HE THOUGHT while the others stumbled like blind mice in pitch blackness looking for some sign of greatness in the questionable faces of the the others looking at one another with the same quietly faint-of-heart conundrum.
