Courage



It takes courage to

start all over again,

resuming a life

that’s been on pause for a while.


Bravely stepping

out into the unknown,

you will find that

LOVE is right there alongside you,

guiding your steps with its light.


So drop the fears

that have been holding you back

and fill that space

with more LOVE instead.


Soon you will realize

you’re stronger than you think

and that anything

is possible afterall.

Words That Touched My Heart

"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. Those persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, an understanding of life which fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen."
~ Elizabeth Kubler-Ross

Ten

Ten years since
the world changed in an instant
when airplanes became missiles
shattering the American dream.

Two invincible towers
crumble to the ground
as if they were made
from the sands of time.

Twenty-four hours
where earth turned into hell
was too much to bear,
yet we still carry on.

One love
that connects all of us together
reminds me that peace on earth is possible
when it first begins in our hearts.

Inspired this evening to reflect upon the 10th year anniversary of September 11th today. May Love's presence bring comfort and healing to everyone affected by this unforgettable day.
