"There's Nothing Left To Lose"

"There's Nothing Left To Lose"
What does it take to let loose? I'm the last person to ask that question, or rather the last person to answer that question. All my life I've been pretty uptight. I guess that's what people would say about me anyway. Well, I'll tell you that deep down I have a pretty carefree side. That side of me longs to be released. I know what it will take to forgo my inhibitions; I know what it will take to feel free, and I'm working on getting there! Sometimes when I hear that phrase, "there's nothing left to lose," I think of someone being at their wits end. I think of desperation. But, it doesn't have to be that way. When we have nothing left to lose is when we are truly free. I really do long for freedom, and I think it's that one thing in life that is worth fighting for. No one really knows me, they just think they do. Someday people will be surprised to see who I really am--someone who really knows she has nothing left to lose.
