If I were a free woman I would fill my heart with beauty and move unrestrained.
I would engage in a whirlwind of strength, opening my heart to new horizons and expectations.
I would get in my car and drive until I couldn't find myself.
I would set aside my fear and my inhibitions and I would attempt flight.
I would collapse every night, gloriously tired from every act of courage.
I would run and when I ran out of breath, I would push a little further.
I would open new doors and bravely step through to the other side.
I would love like I had never been betrayed.
I would hope like I had never been disappointed.
I would crash into inspiration and let it wash over me.
I would write until my heart was empty.
I would whisper beautiful, undeniable truths to my children.
I would expect the future to be deep and full.
I would place the immense weight of my soul on the Hero of Life.
I would encourage my children to adventure.
I would encourage my husband to breath deep and take in the cool bravery of living life on this earth.
I would plant and watch things grow.
I would wake up every morning with gratitude for the sun spilling in through my window.
I would sit outside and watch my children play and laugh.
I would cry without shame.
I would embrace my freedom.
If I were a free woman...
I would live like I were free.
I would set aside my fear and my inhibitions and I would attempt flight.
I would collapse every night, gloriously tired from every act of courage.
I would run and when I ran out of breath, I would push a little further.
I would open new doors and bravely step through to the other side.
I would love like I had never been betrayed.
I would hope like I had never been disappointed.
I would crash into inspiration and let it wash over me.
I would write until my heart was empty.
I would whisper beautiful, undeniable truths to my children.
I would expect the future to be deep and full.
I would place the immense weight of my soul on the Hero of Life.
I would encourage my children to adventure.
I would encourage my husband to breath deep and take in the cool bravery of living life on this earth.
I would plant and watch things grow.
I would wake up every morning with gratitude for the sun spilling in through my window.

I would embrace my freedom.
If I were a free woman...
I would live like I were free.

free to hope. free to love. free to expect good things. free from disappointment, from fear, from inhibitions. i want all that and more.... how do i get there? i think my greatest flaw is that i try too hard. i try. i try. i try. i keep on trying. but i get nowhere. because no matter how hard i try, i cannot do it. it is impossible. i cant just let go and let God. something in me forces me to try. like i HAVE to do it myself. what is that?? besides the flesh at war within me? it is so frustrating! i think just trying NOT to try is exhausting. i have to wrestle myself to the ground on a daily basis it seems to surrender my tendency to try to do it all myself.
