Gambling With Yourself

David Basch

1 min read

Sometimes it’s all about taking that risk

That leap of faith

Into the unknown,

With no idea if you’ll ever make it back


Sometimes you just have to make that jump

To better yourself

All that you are,

To completely revolutionize yourself


Sometimes you just gotta gamble with your life

Because you know what,


What if it’s the greatest decision you ever made?...

Boredom?

David Basch

1 min read

We get so caught up

In everything,

That we all forgot

The peace in being bored


Not having anything to do

Not having anything to think about,

Just you in your own confined space,

Bored out of your mind


It’s the most peaceful thing in this world,

So be okay with being bored

And let that feeling,

Lead all you do,

Peacefully....

Sacrifice

David Basch

1 min read

We grew up loving everything

And as we grow

We develop hatred for things too,


Those same things

We used to love,

End up being the first things we sacrifice

To that feeling of dark, hatred

We’ve grown to feel


We sacrifice who we are

To so many people

So many things,

That we end up sacrificing

The true person we always wanted to be....

Forward

David Basch

1 min read

You know you’re scared

Terrified even,

But you can’t do what you always do

You can’t go backwards

You must refuse,


I know your path is hard

Probably one of the hardest

But,

No matter how bad it gets

You have to keep going

It’s been far too long

To just give in,


You’ve gone through too many battles

Earned far too many scars,

So buckle up

Strap in,

And

Get ready to become the you,


You’re w...

Gracious Comeback

David Basch

1 min read

I know life is really bad right now

You are struggling

You are in pain

You want to give up


But don’t ,

Not just yet


Give it a chance


Be grateful for everything you have

Everything you have accomplished,

And

Use that fire inside you

To make the ultimate comeback,

Against the world that has wronged you ....

Deal Breakers

David Basch

1 min read

We all do it

We all go through life,

Not really thinking of what’s not okay for us


We always think about what we want

What we need

What we desire


But we never truly think into

The things that we truly don’t want

The deal breakers of our lives.


Like, have you ever thought

What are my deal breakers?

What am I not okay with?...

My Safety Bubble

David Basch

1 min read

Focus on yourself

Healing all of your deepest scars,

Build yourself back up


Repair all the pain people have caused you

Stay in your own bubble

Reach out when needed,


But

Remember


If you stay in that safe bubble

You create,

You are in control

Of any pain that comes your way....

No More

David Basch

1 min read

Let it become natural

Let it comes easy to you

When those people leave,

Let them


And


When they eventually return

Disregard it

Refuse it


Promise yourself,

That no matter what


You won’t allow anyone the privilege,

Of abusing you again...

Poetry

Belonging

David Basch

1 min read

We all want to belong

Whether that be a place

A person

Or even just a thought


We all want to be that important

To belong somewhere,

To feel like the most important in the room

To feel needed

To feel irreplaceable


So go out into the world

Find your environment,

Find your people

And

Find where you truly belong...

Best In The World

David Basch

1 min read

You can only be as good

As you view yourself,


So change that mindset

Change your way of thinking,


Take it upon yourself

To shift the world,


Becoming the best in the world,

And don’t be content with anything less....
