The Puzzle Pieces of My Life
Location
When I dared to finally take my own steps,
and when I dared to go my own direction,
I found and learned about myself without the intention.
I left my home country and studied abroad
while I my adultery was slowly brought.
I fell in love when I expected it least.
Choosing for myself made my self-knowledge increase.
Life is like a puzzle;
Each piece completes the overall picture.
Each piece that I place influences my life.
I learned that life isn’t a scripture.
I choose to place a different puzzle piece than others do.
I make choices that make me happy.
I dare to dream, open up, and focus on the good.
Before I placed certain puzzle pieces,
I didn’t know what pieces were going to fall into place.
Therefore, I stopped looking at what puzzle piece to trace.
The still uncompleted puzzle of my life
makes me the person I am today.
I am happy with who I am and how I thrive
because I learned to love life
and found that life will love me back in its own way.
I now know how to sparkle.
I shine brightly everyday.
I leave a little bit of glitter anywhere I go
and everywhere I stay.
I try to inspire others by being myself.
I know that the world is open to me
and my wishes and dreams on behalf.
I live life in this world that opened up for me
when I opened myself up for the world and my destiny.
