I laid down my fears and took up a new Spear I took hold of a mind-set that said I’m not done yet I swallowed my bitter and grabbed something better not just mindful of me more mindful of others I stopped pushing away started having my say pushing on through and I found a new way When anxiety said ‘No’ I said 'What do you know?' There’s much more outside this comfortable zone I’ve found a safe space where I can relate where I can be heard where I am embraced where I can be me where I can be seen to take up my place in my chosen workspace

Taking up my spear
I laid down my fears and took up a new Spear I took hold of a mind-set that said I’m not done yet I swallowed my bitter and grabbed something better not just mindful of me more mindful of others I stopped pushing away started having my say pushing on through and I found a new way When anxiety said ‘No’ I said 'What do you know?' There’s much more outside this comfortable zone I’ve found a safe space where I can relate where I can be heard where I am embraced where I can be me where I can be seen to take up my place in my chosen workspace
Inspired by Spear - part of Resurgo, working with young people to help them get into work
