I will make my own mistakes, I will walk the path that I choose. I will have regrets, joy and fears. I will learn as I go and learn from others on the way. I will fill the pages of the book of my life. Whether it will be a Sonnet or a Tragedy, who can say. I will only know when I reach the end. I will hope to give more than I take and to be a giver of kindness instead of hate. I will be disagreeable and shall have to live and let live. I will hold true to myself and what I believe is right. I will strive to stay the course, even when others fall away. I know that things will not always be easy, but they may yet be worth the struggle. I will be my own person writing my own story.
