Free,
What does that mean to me?
Living life the way I've always wanted it to be.
On my own terms,
Feeling empowered,
Using much more of my brain power.
To get things done,
To have more fun,
To sail upon a sea of more joy to come.
Letting go of anything that gets me down,
Knowing I still wear a crown of regal empowerment in my present,
Not in a hurry or feeling impatient.
Faith in my future,
Faith I can survive,
When life's ups and downs show up,
I won't be surprised.
I will take on my challenges and face them with glee,
Confident I have the strength to handle them,
You see.
I love to quote the Serenity Prayer,
It helps me to know my true character.
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
So useless thoughts with myself I will not exchange.
The courage to change the things I can,
Leaning heavy on this rationale.
And lastly,
The wisdom to know the difference,
This is like a life sentence.
To make sure I keep everything in line with all my dreams that are sublime.
Pushing ahead to face all opposition,
Knowing my life is my own composition of thoughts,
Feelings,
Hopes and dreams,
Figuring out what all this means.
At the end of each day,
I sit alone and always say,
Thanks for this life,
A life that is full,
A life as it constantly unfolds.
I can truly see that in my life,
I am free.
