The least of us may very well inspire the best of us

For it may take one to lead many but it takes many to lead the one

The darkest of pasts shine forth the brightest of futures
Mimi Kurpier Jan 2016
Imagine being born knowing exactly
Who you are, what you are meant to do
Who you belong to

Imagine a life with no doubts or questioning
No risks or risk takers
But see that's exactly what it would be

Imagine sitting down your brain tells you what to do
You act with no question about it
A system taking orders with no mind without it

We aren't robots, we aren't property
We aren't owned by a single being
So why act like we have no identity

Yes we have our own identity
But a fingerprint is but one entity

We are much more than nerves and fibers
We are human beings with endless desires

Weakness is like an old friend with a surprise visit
We all wonder to ourselves why they're there

In reality we have been expecting them all along
Pretending we wouldn't see them here

They remind us of our past decisions
We try so hard to change our way

We wish they would leave and bother us no more
Making life easier but instead we want them to stay

We think our friend is just out to get us
Soon we realize they're here to remind us

Our dear old friend tells how it  is
We can't move forward without understanding what our weakness is
