i will


as a phenomenal woman, i have learned to make one with the flooding waters…so i may control them

i won't allow the waters to over-take me

i shall remain…standing…controlling…strong

i shall demand peace…and the waters will become a sweet serene

and i will stand there in all of my awesomeness pacified

i will


i will look to the hills where my help comes from

far up…beyond a mountains peak

that appears to be ascending to the heavens

i will look for my help to come from a place past the sun

i will


i will allow help from others who stand in agreement with me

i will allow their touch of strength at my weakening times

i will allow them to help me maintain my place of peace

i will


but when the storms of life toss me into a sea of rage

i will once again search for that peace

i will not wallow with the storm

the storm shall not seek residency in me

i shall cry out to thee and be delivered

i will


if it seems as if my days are still subdued with chaos

i will turn to the peace in the still of the night

i will make one with nature

meditating in the cool of the night allowing the calmness to over-take me

i will look to thee who control the stars in the sky

i will


if it ever gets to a point where i am stuck…

spellbound…

emotionless…

frozen…

just can no longer move

i know he shall carry me

i know i will be in his arms

and if i look in the snow…there will only be one set of footprints

i will


i will listen to my body when it craves rest

i will retreat in my most desirable resting place

and remain unmoving until i'm allowed

i will


never will i be naïve to life and its battles

never will i hide my war wounds

but i will embrace them for remembrance of where i could have been

my wounds have a lot to do with the awesomeness i possess today

i will always parade my integrity and virtuousness

i will


if i hold onto my faith and exercise it, my light will always shine

and if my light goes dim, i will go to him who provides a re-boost

i will allow the heavenly rays to replenish my spirit

i will


i will take time for my kids

i will allow them to be kids

i will understand my kids need peace in their lives too

i will get intoxicated by their fearless…courageous faces

i will
