In Response To If

If I could, dream and forge my life around those dreams and not allow the waterfall to wash away and erode those dreams. To come out victorious and glorious, growing, evolving and developing and not let those break my heritage and hinder a building a world of peace. If I could, waltz into a world of truth and encouragement; a sense of belonging instead of being rashly deem in false misleading statements as to make me doubt. If I could, travel back into time and alter the present instead of spent events and old hurts and learn from experience not allowing other to hold me back. Let me accept the things that I cannot change and change the things I can. My growth in faith and trust in God. 10/28/2018
