Stronger Than Fear

My life is what I make it. It is up for me to choose. How do I want to live each day? Do I want to win or loose? I have learned many lessons that have helped the way I see. I've learned that if I want to be happy, then the task is up to me. So I'm finally letting go of the memories that I've held. The pain that has caused me aching, and that hurt that made me dwell. These scars that remain only make me who I am. They are a small reminder to assure me that "I can". Fear is what has held me down, everytime I let it in. So today I am giving myself the power for this battle I must win. I dust the past from my hands as I wipe away my last tear. Today I am proud of who I am, because I am stronger than the fear.
