The mysteries of life surround me,
my heart pounds and my head throbs at
its complexities.
The joys of life gather me up and carry
me on their marvelous journey,
While the trials and devastation of
life cripple me and suffocate my spirit.
Blessed with desires that reach forth
with hope and expectation,
cursed with an awareness of my
limitations and lack....
Dreams baptized in a pool of passion
and cleansed with a sense of righteousness,
that somehow fall short of their glory
and splendor,
of their duty...
Happiness that abounds as it intensely as it eludes.
Sadness that hurts as deeply as it
cleanses.
Questions that cry out for
consideration.
Answers in these questions.
Searching and pondering in these
writings for the questions that needs answering,
for the questions that we are afraid to
ask ourselves.
Freedom in these writings
Excited, still, to be a part of this
wonder,
to be alive, well. and to live in the
grace of God.
Thankful for my soul, my being.
My uniqueness in this creation.
Happy in the solitude that could cripple my spirit
I have spent my whole life searching
for what I want
now that I know - I can’t have it.
Life is truly a mystery.
