I Must Be
Life rules of a young woman

Courageous I must be,
take action for myself.
Bold I must be,
walk right through fear.
Focused I must be,
trusting the process.
Adventurous I must be,
the inner child living
the excitement she needs.
Creative I must be,
mind floating in her universe.
Healthy I must be,
separating food from emotions.
Kind I must be,
everyone is fighting their battles.
Friendly I must be,
so life can have meaning.
A lover I must be,
of myself,
life,
people I meet,
and places I see.
