Circumstance, Stands between me and greatness. Stands between me and courage. Stands between me and power. True power is the ability to choose. True courage is the ability to hope True courage is the ability to love True power is the ability to live Circumstance is fleeting For soon I shall die Tomorrow is not mine Tomorrow is his (or hers) The other me, who is not me Yes, it’s me, but it’s not me I died in my sleep He was born when I awoke He is an all-powerful being His innate ability is choice I choose, I do, I am I am not my circumstance.

Circumstance
Circumstance, Stands between me and greatness. Stands between me and courage. Stands between me and power. True power is the ability to choose. True courage is the ability to hope True courage is the ability to love True power is the ability to live Circumstance is fleeting For soon I shall die Tomorrow is not mine Tomorrow is his (or hers) The other me, who is not me Yes, it’s me, but it’s not me I died in my sleep He was born when I awoke He is an all-powerful being His innate ability is choice I choose, I do, I am I am not my circumstance.
Sometimes we let our circumstance imprison us. Makes us feel powerless; We are not!
