I'm finding myself consumed in loads of school work,

but i dont mind it

I even enjoy it

In about six months ill be at a local high school

for my counseling internship

and after a semester of that,

a licensed counselor

Every morning i write my goals for the day,

And every night i write a poem in my journal

I run every monday, wednesday, friday, and saturday

Every other day im reading

Saturday and friday nights im out at the bar with friends

Sundays im at church

Ive learned to love myself

Im learning to love myself even more than i already do

and im finding myself even more

every piece i thought was lost,

I realized needed an upgrade

Im going out with boys, but im not depending on them

Or the sex

To give myself fulfillment or validation 

Im discovering and traveling and learning new things;

Last week i was just in Alaska

Mesmerized by the northern lights

And today im here

Reading this chapter about the human mind

so i can be a counselor

so i can help someone

I found my calling

but i have more than just one

and so do you

Live

Smile

Laugh

And discover

Dont stop no matter what 

Dont stop thinking you don't matter;

that you're valueless 

I've been there 

and now im here

We all deserve a beginning
