What if I threw a good chair in the dumpster?

What if I am not really living on the planet but hovering timidly on the surface?

What if I speak very softly, eat very meagerly, breathe very shallowly, take up minimal space, never waste a thing, do everything by the rules and keep small always using way less than my share?

What if one day I stood tall and asked for something “I” wanted and it felt good to take back a little of my power?

What if this was a beginning for me?
