A request from my new/not-so-new friend Bonnie. This was shorter than I planned it out to be. Personally, I don't like it, but hey, it was something I wanted to accomplish. And I did. So, Bonnie, here's your boot - even though how awful I think it is. =P
...Oh, great - now I gotta think of a topic to suggest. Errrm... I dunno, love? XD Hey, it's something. My mind is turned off. :P

Movement. It’s a simple word in today’s society that nobody needs to pull a dictionary out for. Simply, the action of physically moving your joints and limbs. Anybody can figure that out. But behind every word, is a door that only those with an imaginative mind can discover…
Movement. Yes, it’s a word associated with physically moving. It's running to the finish line. It takes a big part in the art of dancing. It's a life-impacting action that can affect millions, like Terry Fox did.
But doesn’t this word serve many more meanings other than the one it was first meant for? Instead of physically moving to get somewhere, maybe 'moving' is in reference to achieve something. Like a dream you've wanted to bring to life for the longest time. Like receiving that A on your test, or getting that job you've always wanted.
Movement. Nobody ever said it had to be physical. Maybe movement to you serves a different meaning. Maybe it's emotionally instead of physically. Maybe movement to you is the struggle to get out of bed every morning. Maybe it's the battle to conquer that haunting eating disorder. Maybe it's the pain you have to endure to get over the loss of a loved one. Maybe it's the battle to say no to the choice to decorate your arms with the sharp teeth of a steak knife.
Movement. It's using yourself and your willpower to embark on that classic journey to find out who you are and your main purpose for being placed on this planet. It's the determination that thrives within us that gives us the bravery and courage we need to face the daily obstacles and challenges in order to find this discovery. It's the battles we fight through to simply just move on.
Movement. It's a word that has made me press on in life to give you these words today.
