    Beware the man
    You think you know.

    Richard Lovelace
    “Stone walls do not a prison make,
    Nor iron bars a cage;
    Minds innocent and quiet take
    That for an hermitage;

    And in my soul am free,
    Angels alone, that soar above,
    Enjoy such liberty.”
    Richard Lovelace, To Althea, from Prison

    “REMEMBER YOUR GREATNESS

    Before you were born,
    And were still too tiny for
    The human eye to see,
    You won the race for life
    From among 250 million competitors.
    And yet,
    How fast you have forgotten
    Your strength,
    When your very existence
    Is proof of your greatness.
    You were born a winner,
    A warrior,
    One who defied the odds
    By surviving the most gruesome
    Battle of them all.
    And now that you are a giant,
    Why do you even doubt victory
    Against smaller numbers,
    And wider margins?
    The only walls that exist,
    Are those you have placed in your mind.
    And whatever obstacles you conceive,
    Exist only because you have forgotten
    What you have already
    Achieved.”
    Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

I wanted the open road and new beginnings every day.”
