On both feet in.

Nothing's been clear
Nothing's been in
Nothing's felt true
And I've never had both feet in
Nothing's belonged
Nothing's been yes
Nowhere's been home
And I'm ready to be limbo no more

I sit with filled frames
And my books and my dog at my feet
My friends by my side
My past in a heap
Thrown out most of my things
Only kept what I need to carve
Something consistent and notably me

Tattoo on my skin
My teacher's in heart
My house is a home
Something at last i can feel a part of
Sense of myself
My purpose is clear
My roots in the ground
Something at last I can feel a part of
Something aligned
To finally commit
Somewhere I belong
Cuz I'm ready to be limbo no more
My wisdom applied
A firm foundation
A vow to myself
'Cuz I'm ready to be limbo no more

Well fine,
Here you have it.
My
BOTH FEET IN
post.

I'm so excited, guys!
I've never had both feet in,
and here I am... wearing flip-flops,
not even my mom thought I would ever wear flip-flops.

And my house...well, apartment...
feels like my HOME.
yeah, My home.
My paintings on the wall,
my food in the cabinets,
and no roomate around,
so I can hop out of the shower and wander
around all I want!
(...not that I do that, i don't do that...but that i Could...!)

And Jared!
Yes, ...I call him back, Still
...just in case you were wondering...!
And i've finally sort of... committed,
such a new thing, since I've spent so long
...not committing.
And it feels great!

So yeah...
this is just...my post of
not Just independence and standing on my own,
but also that of having both feet in,
with a firm foundation,
my wisdom applied
and I'm ready
ready to be limbo no more.

This is your most insightful post yet! It's so good that words can't describe it...or be bothered by finding their way onto the post ;)
