The Daily Process of Self-Discovery

Woman of My Dreams

And with each day I rise,

I know I’m here with reason

To grow in love and light

To thrive through each season

Each fear I’ve had,

I know is not mine to keep

Though I may not be there yet,

It’s victory I speak

My story is my own,

and also mine to claim

Despite the face of hardship,

and those who’ve caused me pain

I commit to my truth,

to my journey and my peace

To understand the greatest gift given to me, 

is that, I can become the woman of my dreams
