I am not defined by my story. My story is defined by me, and I can barely wait to finish writing and defining it because I know …
I am debt-free, rising, confident, still standing, assured, overcoming, healed, believing, protected, grateful, celebrating, reflective, happy, balanced, rested, changed, committed, limitless, listening, enlightened, apologetic, optimistic, tranquil, seeking truth, and clear about my purpose.
I am clear about my purpose.
I am seeking truth
I am tranquil
morning’s first flower
quiet breaths of a sleeping baby
orange and purple streaks across sunsets
I am in the flow of gratitude
Thankful for the abundance of answered prayers
For having a circle of loving family and friends
I am grateful for time
Time to heal
To look within for my source of strength
To give thanks each and every day
I am in the flow of gratitude
For wellness
For power
For a joyous and peaceful life.
I am optimistic
light through my tunnel
not just at the end
I am optimistic
glass in hand
whether half empty
or half full
I am optimistic
tomorrow may never come
making today matter
without looking back
I am optimistic
I am protected…
by love
by grace
by mercy
by angels
and most of all
by God
my childhood lies
wearing makeup when I wasn’t allowed
fighting back with my fists before I knew the power of my words
not being present with my children while I was seeking higher goals
the smiles I kept inside when I needed attention
not trusting my intuition
not taking a stand sooner
any hurt I may have caused
because now I know better.
I am enlightened
by morning sun
by favorite scriptures
by poetry
by words
by love
by God
I am a believer in my gift.
It doesn’t matter if the world does not know.
All I need is to respect what I have been given.
Honor it.
Develop it.
And “gift” it back to others.
