Freedom is god
When did we become so
afraid and terrified to be ourselves? I’m free to love you the way I want or, not at
all. I’m free to hold grudges and remember every cruel thing that was ever done
to me so that I NEVER allow those things to happen ever again. I’m free to
learn from my mistakes and I’m free to make new ones every day. I’m free to do
what I want, and to keep my distance from whomever I want. I’m free to express
myself the way I want or to keep my feelings to myself. I’m free to be
flattered but not love you back. I’m free to give my heart to her even if she
takes it and throws it away. I’m free to keep my heart to myself, free to
protect my soul and free to be cold. I’m free to share my bed with her but not
my life. I’m free to be single forever and I’m free to choose a wife when I’m
ready, if that’s what I want. I’m free to not feel guilty if I don’t fall in
love with you. I’m free to be selfish. I’m also free to give you everything I
have and share everything I am. I’m free to be goofy and I’m free to be cool. I’m
free to be me and you’re free to be you. I’m free to not give a fuck how you
think I’m supposed to feel…or how I’m supposed to be. I’m free to focus on what
I’m trying to do with my life. That also means that I’m free to not get mixed
up in dumb shit that never works out, and has NEVER worked out for the hundreds,
and thousands of people who tried everything I DON’T want to do. I’m free to be
stuck in time if that moment that has me paralyzed makes me happy.
Nothing that’s good for you will hold you
prisoner…and that applies to love AND hate equally.
Wow!!! Love this so much! Yes freedom is often times the one thing that we are held captive of. To be free we often have to battle outside forces just to feel great about who and what we are.
ReplyDelete@pHOENIX c. bROWN, I agree. I got to a point where I'm not apologizing for what I want, or DON'T want around me, in my life or in my immediate circumference. I'm happy on most days, even when I'm stressed. Sometimes you have to be unapologetic about what keeps you in that good space where we all deserve to be. I feel GREAT about who I am and the decisions that I make for myself and my family. Everyone deserves that.
DeleteIts good to be free...it helps you make descions and choices to allow growth.
