Standing on My Own

It's another year older for me lately and I've learned an invaluable lesson. A little late in coming, but it's there all the same.

I don't need my arm twisted. I don't need to be talked into doing anything I don't particularly want to do. I don't need to lean on anyone else for my strength; I am strong enough on my own.

I shouldn't expect others to be everything I'm not. And I shouldn't try to be everything they're not as well. I'll concentrate on my strengths and work on my weaknesses and I'll pray that all others can do the same. God love you all.
