I know that when you walk in circles for so long;
it can become nearly impossible to find a break-
an escape route from your pain...
I know that it is difficult to chase a dream
if you share it only with yourself...
I know that your environment can create negativity on a person;
enabling us to lose track of who we really are...
I know that you cannot take a step forward in life if you are unable to forgive yourself for your mistakes;
I know that people can temporarily slow this process down-
...if you let them.
I know of people I have forgiven...wether they are aware of it or not...
I know that you cannot run from your problems;they will only chase you like they chase me...
I know you are bored out of your tree-k-but hold on...
I know that we,as people are the best judges of our own emotional state-but we should not keep it all bottled up-
or a fire will errupt within us...
I know that you have to put yourself first,before anything and anyone,in order to achieve true happiness-
and I know that happiness starts within ourselves.
I know that it can be terrifying to be honest and admit when you've been rotton,and suffer consequences for your actions-
I know I've been rotton before,and am choosing to be,no longer.
I know that we cannot keep running-even when our dreams are at close reach;we cannot run right to them and achieve a positive outcome unless we take a moment to breath in between.
I know that I became the poster girl for the slogan"live fast,die young"because I never did slow down...
and I know it is my first regret in 21 years.
I know that if you impress yourself...you will impress an audience-
and I know that I have found mine-for being honest with you guys.
Thank you
Deanna Prall **one more thing;I know that when you hit rock-bottom;you are the only one that can help get you back up.
