Lover. Fighter. Woman.

I'll let you in on a secret:

I spent

the first three hours

of

my

26th year

in

my

birthday suit.

(And no, I wasn't alone.)

***

26

I will be more honest with myself.

I will be more true to my desires.

I will say "yes" when my body screams for something.

I will say "no" when my heart feels bridled.

I will live at my own pace.

I will let my dreams fuel me to such great heights, and slow me down when need be.

I will aim to outdo only myself, because in this quest, I will always win.

I will not look back in shame or regret or self-loathing.

I will listen to my song.

I will bask in the love around me.

And I will love, love without restrain - the only way that one should love.

***

Lover. Fighter. Woman.

Here's to another year of love, lust and life.
