I pride myself in my ability to walk up all three flights of stairs
I pride myself in my ability to run because for me that’s rare
I pride myself in my ability to push my physical limits
I pride myself in my ability to savor every minute
I pride myself in my ability to see the good in people, no matter what I’ve heard or seen
I pride myself in my ability to love
I love my ability to believe
While I know my ability to run does not surpass others
I’m proud to say I have it, I’m proud to say I love it
While I know my pushed limits don’t always seem significant
I’m proud to say that I don’t stay within the cage that limits make
While I know I hit off notes
I’m proud to say I love the way the notes flow from my chest to the world
I’m proud of how I’ve grown
I’m proud of how I’ve shown passions and opinions of my own
And while I’m not always proud of my past
I take pride in knowing these facts
