Measure of Success

WMeasureofSuccess190x166
Help me to recalibrate
so that I don't live by
everyone else's rules:
It's impossible to achieve success later in life.
You're a woman in a man's world.
Change is something to be feared.

Help me to regroup so that
those who populate my world
are kindred spirits
with the best intentions.

Help me to refocus
so that I remember
who I am
and whose I am.

If You are with me,
there is nothing
else to prove.
