champion that lost

i consider myself a champion, though i have no title or crown

but i have faced my greatest foe, and won, by surrendering, before the final round

i could not conceive how this could be true, simply by letting go of everything i thought i knew

learning how to live a different way, seeking help when i’m confused

you will face your Waterloo and it will determine the trajectory of your life

for only a Champion will be willing to step aside, to listen and learn for guidance in their life
