I CAN BE/I WILL BE
from Speaking Down Barriers – Healing Us with Crystal Irby
 
Healing is the process of closing wounds and creating something new. An important component of healing is speaking life into oneself; telling ourselves who we are and who we desire to become. 
 
I can be afraid.  I will be FEARLESS.
 
I can be lazy.  I will be CONFIDENT.
 
I can be aggressive.  I will be ASSERTIVE.
 
I can be a better person by GIVING MY LOVER/FAMILY MORE ATTENTION.  I will be someone with a POSITIVE MINDSET and career and will BE SOMETHING.
 
I can be ACCOMPLISHED.  I will be ACCOMPLISHED.
 
I can be FREE. HEALED.  I will be FREE. HEALED.
 
I can be AUTHENTIC.  I will be FREE.
 
I can be FREE.  I will be HEARD.
 
I can be HEALED.  I will be WHOLE.
 
I can be FREE. I will be FREE.
 
I can be MY HIGHEST SELF, allowing room for STRETCHING, MISTAKES AND GROWTH.  I will be my HIGHEST SELF, allowing room for STRETCHING, MISTAKES AND GROWTH.
 
 
Self Check
What is the purpose of power?
What is the purpose of violence?
What is freedom?
Who am I?  Who do other people think I am?  Who do I pretend to be?
Is my identity rooted in power, violence or freedom?
 
Let’s heal.  Let’s get free.   Cause when the revolution is over, and we begin to build the promise land, we gotta be whole.  –Crystal Irby
