Memoirs in My Mind

by Dr. Margaret Aranda

I am not going to let any one change me.
Believe me, they have tried. 
But I took a vow and I'm keeping my end of it.

It's my life, my decisions, my mistakes, my accountability.

Mine. I face it, and I live with it. 

I only owe it to God, to live my life according to His purpose.

Now you go find yours.

I'll be waiting for you to come back to me.
