This came about from being at a wedding and having so much fun, but finding myself unsure of who I really was inside, who I am. I know people love me and find me so special, but… do I? How can I be confident in being myself if I don’t know who “myself” is? So in a moment with two amazing friends at dinner, they helped me find this approach, which evolved into this poem / memory / manifesto, of being who I am and enjoying it.
On confidence and being myself and being confident with it
Just acceptance of who I am I guess
I am the way I am
I am strong in all moments
When someone walks away
When I stand alone
When I sit on the chair
Do I want to sit on the chair?
Or do I want to go dance?
Do I want to dance in the center group?
Do I want to step out?
Do what I want
And what I want will come to me
Whatever moment I am in I can do what I want
That is my confidence
In each moment I can do what I want
And I can and will
It is love that let’s me be confident to do that
Love of myself
Love of my friends
Love of the people around me
Love of me
Living A Cool Life
