I AM…
I do not define myself by how many roadblocks have appeared in my path. I define myself by the Courage I have found to forge new paths. I do not define myself by how many disappointments I’ve faced. I define myself by the Forgiveness and the Faith I have found to begin again. I do not define myself by how long a relationship lasted. I define myself by how much I have Loved and been Willing to love again. I do not define myself by how many times I have been knocked down. I define myself by how many times I have struggled to my feet. I AM NOT MY PAIN. I AM NOT MY PAST. I AM THAT WHICH HAS EMERGED FROM THE FIRE. I AM ME.”
”Life is a spell so exquisite that everything conspires to break it.” Emily Dickinson
