Mind Over Power

Shirley Shuler on Jul 6, 2010

Break the chains that bind.

Forgotten foot prints

In hard, dry cement

Willing me back to the past

Daring me to unlock the door

The threshold of fear is surrounding me

Bringing me to my knees

Freezing me to the ground

Wrapping my mind in chains

Holding me in shackles

Threatening me with bondage

Must get up from this power ordering state

Break loose the chains that bind me

Taking back myself from the power

Escaping from the power to freedom without restraint

When you’re learning about something new, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of relevant information available. This informative article should help you focus on the central points.
