If you dare to travel there,
Beyond the horizon of self,
You will do so alone.
Be wary of yourself.
You will be your hero and your beast.
Only you will be able to take away the energy you're feeling and silence the deep thoughts you're exploring.
Do not let that happen.
Embrace the solitude.
I am but a whisper in the wind,
An echo of a man,
A footprint of a forgotten person.
These words are not mine.
You own them now.
Make of them what you will.
Because from here on out,
It's you,
And only you.
If you dare to travel there,
Beyond the horizon of self,
You will do so alone.
All of the world and their judgemental eyes will intensify upon your ascent.
But how much power you give them is your decision.
This is how much significance you give this message is your decision.
It's all about you.
And considering that is the case,
You better damn well be willing to know who you are or be forever shattered by the figures of others as you return to your couch and TV,
Slumped in a mould of repeated failures.
If you do dare,
And you will if you're one of the smart few,
Then give it your all or forget about it.
From here,
Pledge that you will honour yourself.
That you will confront that beast sleeping in the core of your heart,
And with might allied by conscious power,
You shall defeat any internal threat that dares oppose your dreams.
No thought that arises to bring you down with insecurity will prevail.
No attitude that slumps you further into the couch of complacency and laziness will determine your ends.
This is your life.
This is your dream.
You wield the force of the human spirit and a body of incredible resilience.
Your ancestors did not fail you when challenged by the harsh wilderness and traversing foreign lands that evoked immense fear.
They pressed on and fought with the unmatched determination and energy that continues to flow on with the very essence of your existence.
You host every ingredient and tool needed to take you up that towering mountain of mental difficulties that as you stumble through depressive periods.
This is it.
This is the message you've sensed for too long of a time.
Make the change.
Go forward.
You are at the forefront of human evolution,
And nothing of this world can drown you into submission other than yourself.
So go.
Go.
Go.
If you dare to travel there,
Beyond the horizon of self,
You will do so alone.
Be wary of yourself.
You will be your hero and your beast.
