Being Real

Being real is being still
reaching inside and seeing how I feel
I need my own space to feel and grow
to stretch my limits
to see what I know
to see what I want
to see what I don't
to see how my life unfolds
and what just won't~~~~

Our Life's Journey

Being empowered with our life's journey
is an experience we should all savor
I'm learning to take it in small bites
to truly know it is ours to savor and share
no one knows our path like we do
so to own it is powerful to hold it in reverence and peace
it's not exactly an easy thing to settle into
when you've been on your journey all along
and not savored it like you should, took it for granite and moved along

coming through pain has taught me to look for
what I have gained and not what I have lost
I am gaining a new appreciation for myself
that I can truly love~~~~~~
