Untitled


So what if we aren't who we are supposed to be,

Who decides whe we are supposed to be

Where we are supposed to end up? 

I want to be wherever I decide who I am,

I'm not afraid to decide who to be because the only person I want to be is me. 

No one can change you,

You decide your fate.

An outline may be determined,  but your choices belong to you. 

You must own your actions and accept the consequences.

You can't be afraid of how you feel,

Because feelings tell you that you are alive and you shouldn't be afraid to live.

Flourish in your decisions and let yourself be consumed by the feeling that you are in charge of yourself and you make your own path.

Don't let people cancel out your feelings.

You are incredible.

You are loved.

Your feelings are valid and you matter. 

Your fate is yours.
