I love the sun on my face
To feel the breeze in my hair
To feel cool and happy as the day
It is so beautiful and bright
I stand so tall and confident as I allow
The sun to wash down on me today.
Keeping this moment of my time with the sun with me even as the sky turns dark.
I know that brightness will shine in me when my days are long and difficult.

Of wising it was hot instead of cold outside right now.
Yes I have enjoy the hot drinks and the hot food and just enjoying the sweat pants but it’s time for less layers.
The urge to be inside all the time and now worry about what everyone is saying about staying in.
You know you can be out with a smile on your face and enjoy the air around you.
For you don’t have to be so wrapped up some my not know where all the layers of you end at the end of the day.

was afraid to take the leap in life that would get me to the other side
because I was afraid I would fall and get hurt in the process.
But being here today and taking the leap near this beautiful waterfall has made me not be afraid anymore.
Because sometimes it is better and more at peace on the other side as along as I stay true to myself.
These leaps will happen more often and I won’t be afraid to take them and deal with the outcome later on.

the sun on my face after such a cold morning.
I just want to forget about today and hope for a better tomorrow
for I know things will be tough and the week will be long and at the end I will want to not come back again.
Things are going so well for me and right now I just hope and wish it will all work out in the end for I am tired of losing sleep over something that is not going to define me at the end of my day or week.
Something that has already changed me but not in the way I wanted it too.
At this point only the truth will set me free and today just doesn’t seem like the day where everything will be clear for me .

You happy when you set me free from this life you said had so much more to offer me these days.
Did you ever think about how I really would feel about you leaving me that day and how long it took me to get to this place of peace I’m living in now.
I reach up to the sky and I feel so blessed to feel the light shining down on me this day.
I know that who I am today is because of me and that day you walked away from me, made me realize how much I was leaning on you and not standing on my own two feet.
I need to be balance of myself before I could ever really lean on someone else and now I’m more happy than I could like possible.

You’ll find full guidelines on the TLT page – here’s the tl;dr:
I’m riding the wave of a lifetime, I’m so peaceful and happy right now as I focus on making sure I make it out of this tunnel.
I never thought I’d make it this far and my talent be more than a hobby to me and to have all the people I love watching me and supporting me too.
The sun shines down on me and I feel free for the first time im my life and that’s why I love being out in the water for I feel like nothing but, doing what I love in this moment matters to me.

I want to say I took a deep breath that day
and really stopped and thought about what I
was going to say.
But I didn’t and so I’m now faced with
a face of anger that is so bright like the sun
that I’m blinded by the words.
I shouldn’t have said in the first place
I wonder if I apology and take the breath
I should have earlier, maybe things can be
fixed.
