Freedom is a song that i will always sing
Sara Radabaugh

Freedom is where I have found myself. When my heart beats for change, I announce that I have been forgiven. Never do I desire to set my sight on nothing, but instead, I desire to be apart of everything. My soul is free and forgiven and I am not looking back. Freedom is seen on a face which loves unconditionally. It is the face that loves life more and more every day. Freedom is designed to set you apart from the average human being. It is meant to make a mark on the world. Stop and think about it. This is the silence before the chains are broken.

As chains break, we are set free. Convince yourself that you have been free. It is a mindset that you must be willing to adapt too. Never do you need to look back and study the past. Focus on today, tomorrow, the next day and so on. Study the smooth rhythm while marching on. What you see is your reality. Reality is something that we refuse to see. Imagine if your reality was a weight being thrown off a bridge to be never seen again. Take the shackles that bruise your weary skin and set them aside. Brace yourself for a new tomorrow that is full of hope, peace, and happiness. Simplicity and contentment bring alongside freedom and will radiate within you.

Freedom is beauty. She is standing tall and elegantly brushing her grace upon those who wish to join in on this pledge. Don't stand down in any given situation. Rather, look fear in the eyes and blissfully laugh as if you don't notice the flaw. Life is truly something that we are guilty of abusing. It's given to us and rightfully so, it can be taken away. Don't let your time on earth be a slate of hate. We have the opportunity to join the freedom rage, but you must be willing to take the risk. The risk is something that comes with a larger-than-life reward. Freedom is the reward that hugs a sulking soul.

Freedom is the song that I sing. I am forgiven. I am loved. I am unique. I am simply who I am meant to be. Freedom is to be heard when you speak from your heart. Your heart is beating because you have loved and you are loved. I like to think that my life is wrapped in never-ending scripture that saves me. Ultimately, freedom is a blanket that protects those who fight for justice. Justice is often times overlooked as something more than being equal. In all reality, it is more simple than you might want to believe. It is an act of mercy. Be merciful and be willing to forgive. You cannot hold freedom captive from those who are craving the essence of it. Be the one who sets freedom free. Be the reason that individuals get to experience relief.

Take a grip on freedom, and let it roar.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
