LIVIN LIFE @ DA BEST OF MY ABILITIES

LIVIN LIFE @ DA BEST OF MY ABILITIES
Posted By: audrey mitchell on February 25, 2008



To find who you truly are you truly are is one of the most difficult things to do. Sometimes I feel as if I am standing in a mirror fighting with myself because of the battle within. Relationships, friendships, and family will define you the most. What can you do when you come to that point in your life that you get tried of fighting, crying, loving, and not getting it in return? That’s the day you find yourself between a rock and a hard place.


At this moment in my life, that’s where I am right now. I am torn between my home (Houston) and where I stay (California). This is because I meet somebody that showed me that it was ok to uncover my facade. He took me from a little girl into a young lady. I didn’t know who I truly was to I meet a young man with a pure heart, tall, dark, and handsome wasn’t the only thing that caught my attention it was his style it was easy to the eyes. He moved my soul in away that brought harmony to the song that my life hummus.



He brought my out of my destruction into a world of opportunities. This is a rare love that I want let evaporate into thin air.


My heart is torn between the love my family and the love of my soul. I am continuously fighting with myself as if I am shadow boxing. I miss my family so much that my heart cries ever night, but leaving a person I grew so close to is just driving me insane. So, one night I took time to consult God and my thoughts. This was the night I realize I wasn’t a kid no more, but growing into women like a butterfly. That night I found who I truly was a person that had to make decision that could effect everybody lives. I had became the voice of my own life not worrying about nobody else two sense but my own. I found me with the help from my relationship and family the love they gave me release me to be who I am.
