Just know that you, on this planet, in this universe, have a purpose.
Just know that existence on this dimension can be torturous.  
That there will be hurricanes of disaster, internally and externally of your being.
And despite this, know that there is hope.
That there is kindness and belonging and universal love.
Just know, that everything that comes to you, everything that eludes you, was not accidental.
Every fight, every fail, every disaster - anything that makes you feel something, did not happen by chance.
It happened for you;  so your soul can learn, and grow, and share your light.
And don't forget that this world needs your light.
Yes, your light - on this planet, in this universe.

I vow to never condemn myself to the prison of a vigilant life.
I will not allow myself to be restrained by my own fears.

Despite my heart; racing hard as the feeling of danger overcomes me,
I will not let the dismay restrain me.
I will give in to the adrenalin - allow it to stampede it's way through my being.

My foreboding will not stop me - nothing will.
For I am free.

I will race with the wind, with no sense of my destination.
I will voyage with the trains - to where?  It doesn't matter.

I will recount my journeys to strangers - anyone who cares to listen.
I will listen to strangers too.
Wise strangers; strengers who will help me learn, expand.

I am free.
And I will immerse myself in the soulfulness of this world.
Even if it means ignoring precaution.
There's something out there begging for you to come

Imperfections are perfections - only they are disguised by judgement.
Just a thought.
