The Path that is always right in front of you!

I came through the door on day one already thinking about my last day 

In a room full of different stories, I couldn’t find mine

I saw one and then two and then oh hey this seems fun let’s be friends

Some come and some go, some stay and some blossom

The beauty of growth can be wonderfully captured through support and positivity 

The shoulders I’ve leaned on have paved one of the most important paths I could find

My story, it’s always been right there, just a few leaves to brush aside that’s all

Brushing off the leaves to see the real me shine became my story to tell 

Instead of he thinks or she thinks it became I think 

I think social care has always been for me 

I found the guidance I needed to find my true self

Being myself became the cool trend I always want to find

Everyone has their own story to tell and now I want to help people find theirs
