Life Change

Learning to quit Quiting the distractions The obsessions Need to bring everything under control Looking for new perspective New life habits New ways of thinking and being Being open to anything Listening for a change in heart A change in languange, a change in expression Breaking habits isn't easy, but necessary Breaking down the trap door Breaking the confinement, opening new parts of me Amazed at what come to mind, curious things I hear Glad for a change of routine, a new routine Trying to build, trying to grow Use the right tools, the tools inside Liberating my life from what its been Leaving it all behind Not forgetting, but remembering and changing because of it Changing for my future, for my dreams Creating new dreams Grateful for everything Grateful for pain, for challenge Grateful for the truths that hurt, but help us grow Singing new songs, new melodies Letting go of monotomy Determined to finish what I start To talk the fear to a murmur So I can enjoy the moment, the present To live a life of reflection, wonder and mystery To be amazed by the smallest thing To celebrate life, flesh and blood To lessons learn, friends, and possibilities To make the best in everything To remember attitude is everything To stand up for what is right, true, and real To study with joy and amazement Cheering for everyone's success Praying for change in myself A change so profound that it knocks the wind out of me That causes me to rethink everything I've ever known I've ever known
