I am finally allowing myself to be happy,

I finally am allowing myself to experience life,

Oh, and how beautiful life is when you allow it to be,

When you jump off the edge that had been holding you back for so long the feeling of falling becomes flying,

It is terrifying and liberating all at the same time,

Allowing myself to have the one thing that I wanted and was terrified off is such a relief I am scared that I will wake to find that it was all just a dream,

I am finally letting go of the things that kept me down on the ground for so long,

Those that hurt me I no longer allow to effect me in the ways that they had before,

I am finally allowing myself to face my fears and all of my flaws, doing so bravely and confidently,

Once I find them I allow myself to begin patching all of the holes I put into myself and allowed others to rip into me,

And, even better, I am finally allowing others in in order to help me to patch those holes and to help me stay on track,

I am finally allowing myself to breathe,

Oh how beautiful life is when you allow it to be.
