My people are the dreamers and the dream chasers. They are the outsiders, the peculiar, the slightly off kilter, the voracious readers and the insecure writers. My people are brave because they are always afraid. They don’t let fear hold them back. My people are the poets, the visionaries, the men and women who fail miserably and get up and try again and again and again until they get something done, because they know the value of perseverance.
My people are all the unwashed poets, the ragged fringe, the late-on-their-rent to buy another tube of paint or another soul-wrenching book, those for whom drinking deeply of life was never an option, for whom the path less taken was a feature, not a bug.
My people are not afraid to be judged by their opinion and at the same time do not judge others, they value difference and wish people would all just get along ... they smile a lot because they see the beauty in all things, they are proactive with being helpful and love to spend quality time together not bury each other with useless gifts... they daydream about adventure and love the smell of dirt, the sound of a river, and let their children run barefoot and wild.

Your people are indeed awesome 😜 and so are you!
Before reading the poem, as instructed:
my people are the people who practice kindness and empathy.
Now that i have read it... The poem was fulfilling and reinforcing to take in. It reminded me who my people are. (!!)
My answer before reading:
Mine operate from love, even if they dont.

My people are those who can imagine a better future for us all.
