I choose....
to live my life by choice,
not by chance,
for it is far too valuable
to risk any of it
to the unknown.
I choose...
to make changes
not excuses,
using the mistakes I make
to learn from
rather than run from.
I choose...
to be motivated
not manipulated,
giving no one the ability
to control
the decisons I make.
I choose...
to be useful
not used,
so that my days may count
as time well spent
not simply over.
I choose...
to excel
not compete,
for my greatest challenge
shall be myself
and my expectations.
I choose...
self esteem
not self pity,
knowing however I see myself
will be a reflection
of what others see.
I choose...
to listen to my inner voice
not the random opinion of others,
for I cannot please anyone
until I have first
pleased me.
