And as the sun smiles to bless this new day, I inhale life, and journey on.
SHELBY ENSIGNAnd as the sun smiles to bless this new day, I inhale life, and journey on.
SHELBY ENSIGNIn an open sky, I stand alone and for once, that does not scare me.
SHELBY ENSIGNTo be healed by sunlight is the most divine miracle of all.
SHELBY ENSIGNI must learn to separate my bad days from who I am – we are not the same.
SHELBY ENSIGNI am more stretch marks than the skin, more growth than shame.
SHELBY ENSIGNI am capable of loving myself the way I deserve.
SHELBY ENSIGNWildflowers need water, so I too must not chase away the rain.
SHELBY ENSIGNAnd when the sun smiles its brightest, I become a golden soul.
SHELBY ENSIGNI am enough for me.
SHELBY ENSIGNI am choosing to create space in my mind for peace.
SHELBY ENSIGNMore often than I am not, all I need is the rise of my own lungs – I am already complete.
SHELBY ENSIGNI will breathe because I must, but I will smile because I’m living.
SHELBY ENSIGNNature has become a part of me when I am lifeless, I go to her – she is life.
SHELBY ENSIGNI am no longer looking to others to show me my worth.
SHELBY ENSIGNThough I crave roots grown deep, the truth is I’m something of a wanderer.
SHELBY ENSIGNI am learning to hold to hopeful light.
SHELBY ENSIGN
