I Was Made

I was made to live a life that’s full, where I chase the sunsets, climb the mountains, soak in the fresh air and experience the things that make me realise how life is far greater than just me.

I was made to feel the earth beneath me, to cross my legs on its surface and to ground me to the beauty of life to know there’s more to see.

I was made to dance till my feet ached, knowing I’d question it the next day, but then remember the ache was proof I embraced life and found great joy.

I was made to journey far, go beyond my comfort, and connect with places and people, sharing in life’s highs and lows to give assurance, hope that we aren’t alone in it all.

I was made to explore life, to take risks, push limits, and to learn that success and failure are both inevitable and apart from fully embracing the human experience.

I was made to swim the ocean, feel moments of zero gravity, admire the world in all its riches, to hear the waves, the creatures, to pause, appreciate and listen.

I was made to live greatly, love immensely, laugh ridiculously and that’s why I push on, because settling for less would be denying my own worth and the life I still have inside me that I so desperately still wants to be.

So, because I know the mountains, the love, the laughter and a life that’s well lived, I have to keep fighting even in the unknown and adversity, because I know life, even in heartache, still has space for joy and prosperity.
