i walked this night....

[happylife17]

i walked and watched this night. i watched the sky and moon so full. full of life and vitality. full of pride and love. full of promise and hope for days to come. i saw leaves dance across the ground. i saw the joy that people offer to others. i saw a familiar face. i saw a dream dance across my mind and leave into the vast unknown to find it's place and home in the world. in my world. i anticipate a broad variety of emotions to be encountered over these next days and i am okay with that. i am ready to discover what purpose these experiences serve in my life. i am ready to begin this discovery of myself and how to begin this next stage in my life. i know that i may not like the outcome, but i know that it's for the best. somehow. somewhere. sometime in my life this will make sense. this will be purposeful.

batman-thank you for the encouragement to look for my connection to mother earth. i feel re-grounded, or at least on my way to being regrounded. i love you friend! happy life

I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you:

Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good
