Controlling Needs

Wanting a chance to be a person, a friend, in a give and take relationship without the past interfering at all, hoping to have an opportunity to meet problems head on. Becoming stronger through them, wanting to learn how to control needs that are no longer needed to carry the past anymore. Seeing brightness in happiness and joy, allowing it to lodge itself within for the rest of life, seeking a place in life without looking for anything from others. Relying on inner expertise in matters of choice, learning to be self-reliant and independent, the way life stands within itself. Casting off any needs that were flung upon a defenseless child wanting to grow emotionally, reaching out, tired of being angry and isolated. Requirements set long ago are being let go, learning to be real, self-exposed to the world, full of life, gifts and talent to share with everyone. Forging a new path, creating a life that has been waiting to be born, wanting to live free and independent, beginning today, this minute.
