New Beginnings

 

 

It is time for Renewal and Rebirth!

The shedding of habits, worry, and fear

Letting go will put my mind at ease.

I no longer want to feed stress and self doubt,

In the corners of my mind they disappear.

 

I wash away the negativity,

I wash away the pain,

I wash away the regret,

My goal is no longer to please.

My heart will no longer hurt,

I will put myself first!

 

My love is to be cherished,

My happiness is sound,

My health is vital,

My goals will be accomplished,

My spirit is courage, strength, and love.

 

I shall walk in search of the love I left,

For the love that I neglected,

For the love that was forgotten,

My love,

My love of self,

I forgot to love myself.

 

I do not fear the unknown path,

For life is a journey and I will not go back to my past.

Change is never comfortable, 

It will go against the status quo,

But ultimately it is required to grow.

 

I will dive deep into the waters of my soul,

For in its depths,

Pain and trauma will unfold.

I will dive deep,

Uncovering all that was hidden.

I will acknowledge everything; leaving nothing unfinished.

 

As I rise to the surface,

I am kissed by the sun.

I will emerge anew,

The true journey has begun.

RAnewed RAstored RAjuvenated
This is where we know
Those who assume dnt make it
If there's power in words we should only speak true statements

Toast to new beginnings
Unlike most we're in tune with living
Here's to new beginnings
Life without limits

Unconditional love that's daily RAplenished
New beginnings
No longer fooled by the illusion
My mind gives life to the image

Privileged to see you in visions
Ancestors talkin is it you that'll listen
Walk right into a new beginning
True to you I Self Law Am Master no division ???✍? #AllHailTheMatriarch
