I choose to live in light that I have been blessed with.

I choose to smile more times than I feel sad.

I choose to give into kindness rather than anger.

I choose to give each emotion it’s moment and not let it break me.

I choose to hold my family and friends accountable with dignity and respect.

I choose to hold myself accountable for my own actions.

I choose to be a kid at heart.

I choose to love fiercely, boldly and unconditionally.

I choose to break the ceiling of my families legacy.

I choose to live a life fulfilled.

I choose me.
