Hello my name is...

Sometimes the voices in our head like to take your story and create a narrative of your future based on your past.
Maybe your life could matter... Maybe your story means something... Maybe the voices in my head are trying to keep me safe… or maybe they’er taking away my one chance to truly live. My one chance of changing someones life. My one chance to inspire give hope and start a ripple effect in someones life that goes on and on and on.

and maybe that voice in my head is trying to keep me from doing that.
As i walk onto this path I have to believe that’s the potential of taking my own path. That I may inspire others and give hope because of my story and my past and how it doesn't define my future and who I am and where I'm going.

We can pretend that our past is perfect.
But now i see you and do not want to be you.
there isn’t some map for all of to walk on perfect paths to perfect places and a perfect strategy for what is our life.
We have to voyage

we have to step off the path and find our own way.
This doesn't mean it's going to be easy in fact its going to be a lot harder.

But to truly be free we have to take that risk.
I have to take that risk.
Those words your saying are lies they'er not the truth about who I am and the purpose for my life is not to be on a perfect little path

Maybe that could be an okay life but there is something so deep inside of me that feels maybe everything of my past could bring some kind of inspiration and hope to others.

You matter. Your story matters. You are the only you we have.
