  • Untitled post 766

    This bridge is the hardest to cross. The river of pain flowing underneath is overtaking, all consuming.

    Taken out to sea. Now it is just me and the crashing waves. I’m screaming storms and shouting thunder,
    All the while adrift in the rift of oblivion.

    But sometimes you have to hold your own hand and sail through the breakdowns.
    As the storms break and the sea calms,
    I see the stars bright reflection bouncing off the water,
    I hear the sweet lullabies of the world laced into the night sky.

    And I know I have to ride the waves and weather the storms to make the journey back to shore.

    Finding your way through the murky waters of life

    What do you do?
    What do you do when the water gets murky and cloudy?
    When it gets hazy and you feel like you’re in a daze?
    Are we Stuck? Are we Searching? Pushing through searching for an end?

    A meaningful end? A way out? A new horizon?

    All these questions run through my head and there is a million different excuses to come up with, to shove the answers away. To hide from what we fear, the truth, harsh bittersweet reality.

    We hold out for clarity to fall into our hands but truth is we have to get gritty and dirty. Hands down work for it. Hope will bring us comfort and peace will give us strength. And with such guidance we  find our way, slowly but surely.
