"Hope Allowed"

Time moves us...

Greeting the day at dawn with a new horizon...

And we begin...

Today is not yesterday, and tomorrow has yet to be

Because the purpose of this life is not to simply endure it

We do stumble and fall...

Then we have the right and ability to rise and flourish again

Life is existence in experience from all the moments

And learning can be just as hard as unlearning...

When we allow ourselves to understand the difference

And just maybe, it is admitting that things do fall apart...

Because a day in this life can be hard to plan

But know this, beyond any doubt, the pieces do remain after...

And no one has the right to dictate how you put them back together again

Shame should never be given in the middle of a struggle simply because you are human...

Giving the permission to your being to rebuild yourself is the power of hope allowed

Oddly enough, this pain can give you strength...

It sheds a new light upon reality, bringing awareness to your blessings...

Offering the courage to detach the anchor to the conformity of others

Be this compass of change that you seek...

Clear your vision forward...

Acknowledge that some people unfortunately play the victim to the crimes they have committed

And that you are not responsible for their choices or point of view

Because sadly, you will lose some people along the road to discovery and healing

They tend to be the people who only identified with the broken version of you

Or even benefited from it...

Knowing the contrast between then and now is a choice taken...

It is proof that you are growing beyond that which use to hold you still

Because at the end of it all... or even at the beginning...

It is okay to set the heavy weight down

You don't always have to be so strong

Release the expectation...

Catch your breath...

You deserve this moment to remember

That regardless of it all...

You are still you underneath it all.
