Generations of Power

November 3, 2015

I am power.

I carry the weight of generations of family before me.

I sacrifice to show my appreciation and love.

My choices represent and honor those who have guided me.

I wear the mantle.

The power in my life doesn't come from me.

It comes from those before and around.

I am power.
