I am Th3bi
I am like the sun, that, in spite of all odds,
Never fails to give off its rays.
You may love me or hate me?
You may love to hate me or hate to love me?
Either way, there is a strong emotional connection.
I am always smiling confidently,
Embracing my magnificent beauty and radiance.
I give myself off without hesitation,
Without pain or limitation,
For my very nature is to give off my rays.
Through the prisms of life, I shine,
Bringing off beautiful colours.
And, even through the rain,
A beautiful array of colours called rainbow.
You can decide to accept my rays,
And live a bright radiant life.
Or hide yourself in the gloom or in the shadows,
Where my rays cannot get to you,
Ever to remain in perpetual darkness.
Whatever, you decide to do,
I continue to shine beautifully always!
The smiles, the laughter, the joy and the
contentment,
On faces that lead many to say “thank you”,
Is a plus unto my radiance.
For I am the sun, the shining light,
Ever giving off my rays abundantly.
I am Th3bi
The beautiful, intelligent and inspiring element
of life,
Impacting the world with LOVE!

Inspiration behind “I
am Sun”
I wrote this poem as a confidence
booster for everyone who sometimes feels alone on a chosen path to success or
achievement.
When the journey to success is
long and winding, some people may discourage you. A few people may spur you on;
a person’s ideas may be shot down by a dozen. Majority will pretend to be on
your side but secretly wish your downfall, others will support you and abandon
you midstream; and most often, a person feels like quitting or giving up.
Interestingly, the sun always
rises in the east and sets in the west. It has all the excuses not to shine but
it only knows one thing: Shinning. So whether men build shades, use umbrellas,
wear sunglasses, use sunscreens, sit in air-conditioning cars or offices, the
sun continues to shine. Sometimes though, it may feel like giving up, the
clouds take over, and everything seems gloomy. And, the same men who blocked
the sun wishes for it to shine again. The sun then breaks through the clouds into
a beautiful rainbow after the rains because all it knows is Shinning. The world
then stands in awe and admiration for the rainbow and the sunshine that follows
the rain.
So it should be with every person
who believes in a good course of action and has chosen a path to succeed or
achieve at something. See yourself as the sun and keep shinning in spite of all
the challenges. You will eventually break through and make it.
It is said that, “the darkest part of the night is the time
closest to dawn”. Do not quit persevere and continue doing what you believe
best in. And when you do, the very people who stood by to laugh, abandon you
midstream or spur you on, will congratulate and start cheering you on for what
you have achieved.
