Upliftment

Sometimes, you need to change your mind.

You need to recollect what you were doing

Before you became distracted.

You must walk back a few paces

And remember what your joy was

You need a reminder that what you want

And what you fight for might be two different things.

Then, there’s the choice you make to fight

Or you choose to be happy.

You cannot do both.

Once you make that choice, you’re free to fight or fly.

Moving on up!

This morning, I awoke knowing that I am in the lap of luxury, right now, at High Point! I’m packing to move to my homestead in North Carolina by May 30th. This has been a beautiful place to live, only minutes from the Atlantic Ocean. But it is time to stop paying other people’s mortgage and concentrate on building my own estate. I am excited, yet apprehensive, happy, yet concerned that I will need to adjust to living in the country, where all the amenities of a city do not exist. But there’s land, forest, water, electricity, sewage, and sunshine. I will persist and rise!

I will plant my aloe, philodendron, vegetables, and flowers.
