~ My Way ~

~ My Way ~

I guess I was always a little wild
A little rebellious, a little reckless
From a young age, I walked my own path
Following the signposts of the soul
Rather than the signposts of society
I trusted the authority of my intuition
Rather than any government or institution
I still feel this way; each person must find
Their own path through this wilderness
If they are to find out who they truly are
And get the most out of this life.

Self-direction is the way
And I will never stop thinking for myself
Nor settle down into some sofa
Turning on a TV and turning off my mind
I shall follow this internal compass to whatever end
For without it, I would not have found
The joy that I now store in my soul
The fire that burns in my heart
And the truth that runs through
My words.
