    I rise

    Today, when I rise...I will learn about me.

    I will recognize what gives me stress.
    I will realize my weaknesses.
    I will understand my doubts.
    And my fears will be revealed.

    Today, when I rise...I will learn about me.

    I will recognize what gives me peace.
    I will realize my strengths.
    I will understand my faith.
    And my courage will be revealed.

    Today, when I rise...I will learn about me.

    I will conquer my negatives by building my positives.
    I will overcome my anxieties by challenging my fears.
    I will create, with this power, a being of self-respect and honor.

    Today, when I rise...I will come to know me.

    And because of this knowledge,
    Tonight...when I lay to rest
    I will have come to love me.
