Ligaments are folly for the static movements that I tender on the world around me. I'm a puppet that has had its strings severed. No longer will I stand before a crowd admiring the swag of free motivation. Now I'm but a flawed puppet with my useless severed strings lingering. Once upon a time I was a puppet and I pulled all my own strings... But now I'm gathering dust in my self  pity, and my strings are now cut. But even though they are severed, and no longer dance to my own tunes. I'm no weaker than before! I'm stronger within myself, I may have fallen but got up. "We are stronger than we think, "We just have to pick ourselves up.            "For we are our own weight, that only we can pick up.

Though Fallen We Pick Ourselves Up
Ligaments are folly for the static movements that I tender on the world around me. I'm a puppet that has had its strings severed. No longer will I stand before a crowd admiring the swag of free motivation. Now I'm but a flawed puppet with my useless severed strings lingering.

But even though they are severed, and no longer dance to my own tunes. I'm no weaker than before! I'm stronger within myself, I may have fallen but got up.
