RE: ---- Steemit Open Mic Week 97 – Cope Cover – Audioslave – I Am The Highway ----
The song is priceless and so are the words you decided to leave under the song.
I hardly find my words to actually write something qualitative on here because reading all these rows, with your song in the background, made me tear up which doesn't happen too easily.
But I do believe that no one could actually say it better than you did: We are not what we are told we are... we are what we choose to be.
@gabrielatravels thank you so much for your support and the awesome comment. What you have written is extremely qualitative, you have expressed yourself perfectly and to be honest your comment made me short of breath and tear up also. Its because the moment i saw the words you had written i knew we had connected on the same frequency across any sense of what would be classed as reasonable measurement, such as time, space, etc.
This is a perfect example of the power of human connectivity, through congruent self expression we can inspire, touch the souls of others, share parts of ourselves we may hide form others in day to day life, we can find our tribe, like minded people who remind us its ok to be yourself as difficult as it may seem at times. We find kindred spirits who have faced similar demons , who have empathy compassion and understanding... we find humanity.
Yes, "We are not what we are told we are... we are what we choose to be." This can be a difficult thing to do at times, choosing what we want to be, due to the influences of those around us impacting our decisions etc., but if we are striving to be ourselves and be happy then to quote the great Dr. Seuss
