"A Promise Kept"



There are so many amazing views upon life
Some things can look the same...
Even though everything has changed
Heart beats link moments together
The mind in a fury of actions, feeling, and thoughts
We remind ourselves that we need to remember
In subtle and not so many subtle ways...
That we are loved...
And we love and care for...
The important, wanted, and needed
Our easy is anothers life altering difficult
The truth can be a burden carried alone
For others are not brave or strong enough to bare it
We are kind, gentle, and soft
There is honour in the protected
And faith and hope found within conviction
A ray of sunshine always awaits those stuck in darkness
Our minds are a very powerful thing
Happy is a right to be lived...
Don't ever allow anyone to tell you different
Let joy be as contagious as laughter
Smile that wild smile
Let tears rain
Absorbing into and from the heart
Embrace trembling hands
Hold that place of safety
Even if the only thing you have to offer is silently standing there
Be present in that moment...
See the beauty in forgetting to hold onto those things that no longer give us purpose
You've learned the lesson
Now, live passed it
We are all perfectly imperfect
The unique and one of a kind
Strive for any of this on any given day
And you will have not only lived, but existed as a being of this world
Be this to yourself...
And for others...
Even though to will be the easiest and hardest promise kept.
