My Writings - I Want A New Life


I want a new life.

I don’t want this old one anymore.

I want a greater one though.

I deserve everything!

I want so much more!



How do I get there?

I feel like I am at the bottom.

I want to be at the very top.

In fact, I want the top to grow even more, so that I can go even farther than I can see.

How DO I become a new me?



I don’t want to stop in the middle or even at “I’m almost there.”

I want to go so fast to the top where oxygen is rare.

Where is my confidence, my passion, my fun?

I want a new life.

Maybe it is time to run.



How do I leave this place?

What does the first step feel like?

Which way do I go?

WAIT!

Will I leave it all behind or does it all follow with me?

This all feels heavy and I just want to feel free!

How do I set myself free?



Oh!

I have stopped packing my suitcase.

I am no longer in a bind.

I… JUST…REALIZED….the journey has to begin in my mind!



My thoughts are my only prison, so let me be released.

I must clear out these toxic ideas that keep me from moving forward

And replace them with dreams and beliefs so that my world is a continuous feast!

Maybe I could feel a bit of amnesia, and forget the previous baggage that weights me down.

I could see the future as bright and clear and hopeful.





I would define “ME” as something new;

SOMEONE WITH OTHER POSSIBILITIES AND A LIFE OF WHICH I’VE ONLY DREAMT AND KEPT MYSELF AMUSED!

I can be a different person; that is what I am saying here.

In order to change my path, then I must create where I want to go, surrender the old beliefs, and then believe and focus completely on going into a higher gear!

Can it be that easy?

YES

I want a new life.
