Silent Birds Lyrics

I have the power to change my life

I set my terms

I am not afraid of change

I can only be me

No one else will live my life for me

I have to make choices for myself that are sustainable

I won't always feel this way

I have a choice in what I do to make myself feel better

I can choose to react or to respond to a situation

I need to take care of myself

Other people's behavior does not necessarily reflect on something that I have or haven't done or have or haven't done correctly

Other people's behavior towards me may not have anything to do with me or what I have done

I am empowered when I shift my perspective and focus on the positive things in my life

I have a choice in what I will tolerate

If I can approach life with a positive perspective, I can move forward confidently

Just because I put up with something in the past does not mean I need to continue to do so

If I feel strongly about some thing, I should consider what I should do about it, if anything

Worrying about something does not do anything

If 10-year-old me saw the life I live and what I have accomplished, they would freak out

I am capable of making choices that will benefit me and align with my goals

I can feel and think things without becoming them or letting them overwhelm me

I am free to be myself and other people's acceptance of me does not change who I am

I can choose to live my life or I can choose to live someone else's

I don't need unnecessary stress in my life

I am valuable whether or not I do anything or not

I can choose to live my life or to let other people live it for me

All I have is the present moment. I cannot change the past and I cannot control the future

Worrying does nothing

There will always be unknown, and I can choose to fear it or accept it

I don't deserve to be treated poorly

I don't need to have an inflated sense of worth in order to know that I have value

I have to check in with myself every day and make sure that I want to be doing the things that I am doing

It is important that I listen to my heart and what it has to say to me

I can choose to run away from my intuition or to trust it

I am allowed to feel. I don't need to apologize for feeling

I can't control how I feel, but I can control how I respond to my feelings

I don't want to regret giving my time and energy to people who did not appreciate it or took advantage of me

I have limited energy, time, and capacity

Until I make concrete decisions for myself, I will inherently allow others to make decisions for me

I am allowed to change my mind

I am always healing, learning, and growing

I have lived through over a year of a global pandemic, which is not over yet

There are many many wonderful things for me to see in my life if I am willing to see them
