11/25/2018 2 Comments as you gowhat i’m learning these days is nothing new. it’s the same old lessons that i think we’re all re-learning as the days pass us by & they show up in different forms for us all, of course, but the message is universal : this life is magical & this life is devastating & it is invigorating & it is heartbreaking & it is gracious & it is gray.
i know i'm not saying anything new, but my mind hauls these thoughts around like deadweight until i put my fingers to my laptop keys like it’s a piano & i’m there to make a melody. here i am. i shove my thoughts away, then draw them close. i befriend them, examine them deeply & make a melody out of them. this is my life. i wrote the following poem for myself, but i wanted to share it in case you need the daily reminder, as i do, that ‘really, all is well & you are loved & you are forever taken care of & you were only meant to take on this life one day at a time & i promise you, you’ll make it. we all will.’ so, from my heart to yours : “as you go” as you go, remember : you are only meant to hold today. as you go, remember that to hold anything more than today is weighing down those little wings of yours. it may just be why you’re not soaring like the ready sun that rises every morning to shed its golden warmth on a cold & aching world to make it glow. & as you go, remember : life is no puzzle & trying to piece it together will make you fall apart. you were made for far more than solving life. & as you go, remember : your mind is some of God’s best work, so think deeply & your heart is what another craves, so share honestly & your life is what the stars wish upon, so live generously. & please know : you are loved, regardless & you have His full attention. & as you go, remember : these days are unraveling just as they should & as they do, you are, ever so slowly, growing like love does & soaring with those little wings that are holding your today & finding your place in this grand world, one day at a time.
