Cherish the Future
7/15/2021
It starts with a wanting.
And then acceptance.
That inhibition leads to doubt.
And doubt leads to stagnation.
I am at first driven by the fear that is behind me.
I am then driven by the hope that is beyond me.
I am no longer deceived.
By myself.
I can now control my truth.
I can now control my assumptions.
Assumptions that once lead to my downfall.
It starts with a wanting.
It ends with a passion for hope.
