The Power of Second Chances
At the shores of Lake Victoria
Hey friend, I wrote this just for you.
The opportunities we are given to fix our mistakes
To do things a little better
You'll make the most of yours
You'll learn to look into the future without letting the past hurt you
And you'll find a way to close wounds that once seemed impossible to heal
To do so, you'll explore paths you never imagined could lead to relief
And little by little, you'll let go of the past
You'll decide to help people who want to start over, just like you
Help them to rebuild bridges over impassable chasms
You'll leave behind everything you were and you'll focus on everything you can become
And you'll decide to embrace this new life with all your heart
Until you at last feel that you have everything you want
Everything you've spent years fighting for
And then you'll know you don't need anything else
To be happy.
