Not Weakened

What have I seen or said today?

You may never know

I have seen little ones cry

And have seen people lose a grip on reality

But I am not weakened.

Reality is what we live

Our choices have controlled who we are

They may have been good or bad

But we haven't weakend.

Our knees have not yet hit or settled on the ground beneath us

That is because we stand tall

And fight for who we are.

People cannot tell us who we are

Or what we are to do

That choice is ours.

 This life, this reality

It is ours

And we have not yet weakened.

"Our choices have controlled what we are."
That line was very chilling, but so true.

Oh .. I loved the strength and inspiration that this message feeds of yourself.. and many are not weakened. However we must embrace that some will be weakened.. and though weakened by choices they are still a part of a society that we all share..

I like the strength it paints to the call of FREEDOM and preserving the good in word... however on a new page.. not fighting for FREEDOM but embracing it and all around me. Getting up again and again.. when I am down.. finding inspiration.. desire.. COMPASSION.. in all around me even when my heart is saying one thing and mind another.
