When The Going Gets Tough
When the going gets tough,
remember to paint a picture
of your heart
where the tiny voice speaks
to you
in its sorrow, and in its rage and its wanting.
It says:
“It is never too late to hear me.
But if it has been a long time,
Then you might need to approach
Gently,
With a compassion that is
Just beyond your reach,
And requires you to jump into an empty, dark space.
But if you take that courageous leap,
you will win me back,
and your will
becomes aligned
with mine.”
