label me a rebel

conscious redirection

is rebellion bad? 
or does it get viewed as bad because something different was chosen? 

rebellion breaks the rhythm -  
defiance doesn’t accept dysfunction as destiny... 
or carry patterns just because... 
 
nonconforming?  
maybe... 
resistant? 
perhaps.... 
 
rebellion is a special kind of reverence... 
it’s a conscious redirection. 
a vow to something more... 
a vow to respond with intention, passion, and care. 
rebellion is a form of release... 
it’s responsibility in its most sacred form -  

i've seen what happens when movement stops... 
when no one asks why. 
i've seen what happens when repetition wears the disguise of tradition, 
and retreat becomes religion. 

move because they didn’t. 
stretch because they stiffened. 
ask because they lost their voices. 
study because wisdom reveals itself only to those with the disciple and awareness to receive it. 

if rebellion gets revenge on the past by building a better future.... label me a rebel.

until the next thought,
