To dance and enjoy this break from everything as the sun shined down on me.

I know this break will be different as I swing around and do things differently this time around.

Looking at the clear sky I pray things will be clearer for me as I step forward and stop looking back and accept this is my vision and only God can guide me through this path that is traveled by few.

Those days of excitement are here as you walked across the stage and accepted your degree.

Hoping now on your life would finally fall in place and you would do what you love for the rest of your life for this moment was finally here, and you are living the life you had dreamed of.

You have applied everywhere and you can’t wait to work, for what you know will make you fulfilled this time around.

Not

mywords2228

everything has a right answer or an easy one and as I sit here looking up at you I realize that I don’t have the answers either.

But that doesn’t stop the conversion and the desire to know more and learn more.

We are all still growing And expanding as humans as men and women.

We can lead and not tear down one another.

If that’s how you want it than have it your way.

For we don’t have to come at life as if every move is a fight or battle and we’re in it alone.

But I won’t be around listening or watching because I know a trainwreck when I see it.

I hope you find your way when this is over because life is too short to live on the wrong side of the road.

When there is no reward coming your way only more problems or ideas leaving you weaker, not stronger during this journey.

My moment

at peace and hope and finding what I need to do on this hot day.

Calm water falling down the waterfall easing all the stress and tension from my shoulders.

As I meditate and pray for better days ahead and finally letting go of past hurts and fears.

And accept that this is how things will be and change what I can because complaining won’t lead me to a better journey.

Only suffer more in a space that isn’t as bad as I make it seem.

So to the light, I will go and let everything be seen and embrace this week and month.
