You saved yourself again.
You almost drowned, but in the end, you swam.
You pulled yourself out before the murk closed in.
Though it hurt a lot, you found your strength.
When the breaking begins again, you will find your footing and move ahead.
Your heart may be weary, but you will find your strength.
Your faith holds you. You are well.
You carry the world on your shoulders, yet you stand so tall. When the world gets you down You shove it all, and you keep …
It’s okay to not be okay. I say that over and over again.
But what does ‘Okay’ feel like?
Perhaps my conception of ‘okay’ is tainted by what the world has told me is ‘okay.’
What if ‘okay’ is this moment?
What if ‘okay’ is not even relevant?
The only thing that is real is here. It is this moment. It is the breath that I am breathing and, it is the sounds that I hear. It is everything that surrounds me.
It is my body.
It is my health.
It is my hands and legs.
It is the moment.
It is the lake that is near me.
It is the lake that can swallow me at any moment if it chooses.
It is the lake.
It is not the thought of the lake swallowing me up.
It is not the thoughts.
It is the moment.
It is the life that I have.
It is the people in my life.
I am here.
I am here even when my mind thinks I am gone. I am here.
I am here.
And You are here.
You are hope.
You are light.
You are a reflection of God’s beautiful love.
You are strong.
You are intelligent.
You are powerful.
You are love.
Smile every day and smile with your heart.
Look at yourself and believe in every beautiful thing you dream of.
We are here.
Oh, the world is ours!
The time is now.
