Today I promise....
To listen....
More carefully....
To set my heart free....
I give it wings!!!!!
Roots I'll always have....
Tied only to my children....
To take those vows...
Never again....
I'll never look back on the past....
I'll Look to the future.....
Never taking for granite....
What hold near....
One more promise to myself....

this may take awhile, I cant write it or say it,
So.....may be I'll finish when the time is right,
But for now
I'll never let anyone keep me down!!!

When one makes a promise
to one's self...

to hold it true...

is the hardest mountain
we give ourselves
to climb.

Well done, in both heart,
and context.

Love is the life of the soul...
It is the harmony of the universe
