“RELEASE ME: A Message from the Powerful Voice Within Release me to be happy and secure with myself, Allow me to feel beautiful inside and out, Stop doubting me every time I’m faced with a challenge, Put away the crippling fear that lingers throughout my mind, I am one of a kind and should not be compared to anyone else, Stop allowing the opinions of others to determine the next step I take, Allow me to shine, to step out and be noticed!

I’m ready to discover my talents, And my reasons for being here, I’m ready to walk with confidence, And to speak without fear, The time has come that I be FREED! Now I demand for you to RELEASE ME!!!”
