Unfold

 

This year

instead of thinking

and planning

and considering

I'm just

buckling in

rolling down the window

throwing back my head

and enjoying

the ride.

 

What's the worst thing that could happen?

 

I'll be swept away by a moment?

Taken completely by surprise?

Rendered speechless

(don't bet on it)

at how fun life is

on a road

without a map?

Patience doesn't mean making a pact with the devil of denial
ignoring our emotions and aspirations
It means being wholeheartedly engaged in the process that's unfolding
rather than ripping open
a budding flower
or demanding a caterpillar
hurry up and get that chrysalis stage
over with.
Sharon Salzburg

 

The voice I hear

is just a whisper

but the words

are clear.

 

Oh Debbie
relax and enjoy the ride,
I got all of this.
